Toilet Paper Holder

Theo,,, I've done quite a bit of ADA related work last few years.. I guess the thinking is that someone who may have had a stroke, or very limited use of their hand, can "paw" at the paper. When its hung over the front, it makes it easier to access.

Yeah, I guess I can see where some people could feel that way. Myself, I would find it just as easy, or easier, to kind of bat up, with the back of my hand.

Do me a favor. Ask some of those who have had a stroke or limited hand use, which way they think would be better, or if they think they would be the same - explaining how over the back would be easier to rewind too. I'm thinking probably no one has asked before, and the 'thinking' was thought by someone with no disability - which happens way too often, in my book.
Thanks.

Original thought

Good Day Members, Finished a solid North American Black Walnut Toilet Paper Holder. Used a Freud Roman Ogee bit 38-104, with my Bosch 1617EVS. Results were good. Dowel pins & glue were used to connect the arms. Finishing was performed with Watco Natural Oil. See photos. Your advice will be appreciated.

Back to the thread hey Rich, did a great job we really like it hope you enjoy it for a long time!

Semipro, you must remove the corn from the cob. Otherwise, you get major skin abrasions. Also, corn worms can leave you with an even bigger mess.

Very cool. I shall try the "hanging-down-the-back-install." Your dissertation makes enormous practical sense, esp. with re: to kids.

Billy Boy, Thanks for your comment. I'll make a couple of more. Rich

Dear Bob, Fabulous idea. Send me a photo when you finish the holder.

My son, who has Downs syndrome, built a wooden paper towel holder. He insisted it belonged in the bathroom ?? -where it now holds 2 rolls of toilet paper at a time!
