Title: Plans for making a paper tuner
Post by: Don Armstrong on March 18, 2012, 08:44:00 PM
I could use a box with some paper over a hole but want to make a easy to use paper tuner  :D  . Anyone have some plans or pictures of some designs. Thanks, Don

I got an old flip chart stand from recycle center, I turn it backwards hang a recyled role of paper on the top cross bar and role down when need to use.  two clips at the bottom hold the paper in place and a clip up top on the role stops it nroling.  works great, folds up for storage, it was recycled and is almost made for it.

Thanks Rick, that is very nice. I work in a printing plant so I can get butt rolls of paper. They tend to be a little heavy and I would have to use a 1" rod thru them. I think I will need to use 2X4's due to the weight. Don
