Toilet Paper Dispenser w/Push button Release

thingiverse

After years of dealing with struggling to tear the empty roll off or trying to get the holder apart to remove the empty roll I modified one myself using a pocket knife and a twig from outside. then simply applied the changes to a Sketchup model I made, then exported all the files to STL format. I have not printed this thing, but I tried to design the thing to fit on most 3d printers. I have not printed a spring that goes inside roll holder #1 I will design one to be printed but have not learned how yet. :( As always let me know if there are any problems with the design and I will fix them. Thanks for looking. Instructions Assemble sides 1 & 2 to the base with glue Install Push Pin #1 into SIde holder #2 (DO NOT GLUE) Slide Push Pin #2 onto Push Pin #1 (You can glue this if you want.) Install a light 28mm spring into Roll Holder #1 Slide Roll Holder #2 into Roll Holder #1 As show in the images Insert Pin into Roll Holder #1 Making sure Roll Holder # 2 is inserted far enough for Pin to Retain Roll Holder #2 (should feel the spring tension) Snap Roll Holder assembly into sides. To release roll Holder press Push Pin.
