Paper Towel Holder

I created a paper towel holder that has an external arm extended from the front in order to make tearing more accessible and easy.
Supplies
I would recommend using either metal or wood for the body of the paper towel holder, either nails or screws to attach into a wall, and either a hammer or a screwdriver to fasten the paper towel holder into the wall.
