Loo roll dispenser.
This is a very simple one, made for me years ago by my (then) 8year old daughter at school.
Solves the problem of having it to hand in the shed for the 111 times you need it, and need to grab one handed.
As you can see, it is some years old, as it still has the "old" type construction, but the new ones work just as well.
Cut off in the "waist", cut the base down to the widest point, cut back the top to the right height, (just more than the height of the loo roll). If necessary, you might have to put a couple of slits in, to get it to fit inside the base.
Remove the cardboard core fron the roll, pull the paper out from the centre, and feed through the opening, push it together, and secure with a wrap of electrical tape. (Tape has lasted some 10 years as well)Alastair

Neat setup, Alastair. There are some commercial versions that are pre-packed. According to my imperfect understanding, they changed the bottle design at the request of the recyclers, so they'd only have one material to contend with. Unfortunately, they seem to have deliberately designed them so they'd fall over. Progress, eh?
