I'm designed next usable thing for your kitchen, or place where you use paper towel in different length or center dimension (all producers of paper towels use their own dimensions / diameters)

Vertical or horizontal instalation. Fully sliding and easily replaceable! optimized for 3D printing!

next step of tidy kitchen.

Left holder on pictures is version 1 / all printed datas are version 2, do not be afraid, that is not look similar ;)
