Take a minute and look at your problem. Once you know what you need to solve start brainstorming and taking measurements to get to a solution. I measured my towel roll and considered how I was keeping it and where I was storing my towels.

For me I at this point I started gluing my parts together. I started one section at a time and glued it all together so I didn’t miss anything.

With all my individual parts complete it was time to construct the finished caddy. I glued my sides and my cross supports together and threaded my spindle through both ends. Then added my end caps for the spindle. For me I did not glue my spindle to my frame or to my end caps, this allows for easy towel replacement in the future.
