Towel Holder
This model utilises an old broomstick, with a diameter of 24mm.
You can use any round material up to 24.5mm in diameter, as I’ve included a bit of clearance.
or
You print your own stick with the provided profile “Towel Holder with printed stick” you choose.
(for print recommendations look below)
For mounting I've used 4.5 x 60mm Woodworking screws.
By leaving some space on the left and right when cutting your material, you'll have ample room for various rolls, as demonstrated with the two different types of spools shown.
Additionally, this holder can also be used for storing filament spools!
V2 now includes a pass through or middle part. It allows you to use a long stick/tube and put rolls on either side.
If you would like any modifications - such as ceiling mounting, different diameters, or an extension piece - please feel free to reach out. I'm happy to provide custom adjustments.
The clearance to the wall is approximately 220mm, allowing for rolls up to 440mm in diameter.
This holder is printed from PETG, making it quite strong yet slightly flexible, as shown in the third GIF where I apply significant force to it. I chose to avoid PLA due to its brittleness, but I can see it working well as long as your workshop doesn't get too hot.
I also recommend printing the stick out of PETG rather than PLA due to PLA's brittleness.
The individual stick parts fit together tight, this is by design to ensure a strong joint. It's important to remove all the support structures to ensure a good fit and avoid running into issues later on.
For reliability and longevity reasons I recommend glueing the joints after a test fit.
Happy Printing! :)
