Description

PDF

The Fastener Paper Towel Holder consists of 4 components and fits a standard 11" tall paper towel roll. 

The final product depicted was printed with PLA. The base, core, and connector were printed on a Prusa Mk2.5S while the core was printed on a Creality Ender 3 V2. 15% infill and no supports are sufficient for all parts except the top, which used organic supports on the base plate only. The base can be printed at 10% or less, too. 

The core depicted in the photo has been updated to use less material and provide more wiggle room between the threads. Depending on printer settings, threads may need to be sanded down or gently worked clockwise and counterclockwise- excessive force is not necessary. Updates may be added at a later date.
