Today's Tip | Make Use of TP Rolls

Here's one way to reuse the toilet paper or paper towel rolls instead of throwing them in the trash or recycle bin.

Make your own USB and co-ax cable caddy.  It's very easy and practically free.

To make the one I made in the pictures, you will need:

Scissors
3 toilet paper rolls, clean and empty
Glue gun and hot glue
Stray cables



First, cut the tubes in half.  I made a six-pack, but you can make it as big as you need to organize your cable spaghetti mess.

Put the tubes cut-side UP.  The other sides are smoother and mostly level.  My cutting isn't exactly precise.

Next, glue the tubes together in pairs.  After that, you glue the pairs together to make a cluster.

 
Fold up your cables into tight circles around your fingers and insert them into the tubes.  And there you have it ... a practically free and environmentally friendly way to make the most of your toilet paper tubes.
