I made this toiletpaper holder from a snowchain i got for 50cents at a fleemarket :)
It's meant to hold 4 rolls of toiletpaper of wich the bottom one is used (the rest is stock)

You Will Need (4 things)

  • 1 x Vice
  • 1 x cutter Power Tools
  • Screwdriver
  • 1 x pewag alaska super

Steps (6 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    Take a snowchain, mine looked like 6 times a H with a chain on top and bottom to keep it together.
    I don't know how snowchains from other brands look.

    First we are going to take the H-shapes appart from the chain.

  2. 2

    To get loose H shapes. Put the links that keep the H and the chain together with their back in the vice. an use a screwdriver to open them.
    You will need these links to put the H-shapes together later!!

  3. 3

    Find someone who is used to handeling power tools to cut the chain.
    Cut the link where i drew the red line. On al the H you are using (i used 4)

  4. 4

    Now we are going to reasamble the parts to be a toiletpaper holder.

    Snowchains aint straigt, so check if the spaces between the holders are even, else turn the chain arround so it is.

    I used the vice to close those links from step 2 again, since i didn't managed to do so with a hammer.

    It shoot look something like the image now. (arrows point at those links from step 2)

  5. 5

    With the snowchain set came also this rubber band with hooks.
    I cut the rubber band, and opened the hooks. (in the vice with a screwdriver)

    Now attach those hooks to those little loose chains (i used the vice to close them)

  6. 6

    And well then you are done

    I chose to use the thing that probably gets used to attach the chains to cartires. So people sitting on my toilet may see it is assembled from a snowchain.
