These two projects can easily be completed in a weekend!
Mine were both made from oak, to match our bathroom vanity. The only challenge
here is scooping out the tissue holder so it can be recessed into the wall.
The magazine rack has it's own challenge, makeing the mortises for the
slats. Plans are available for both projects. |

This shows the setup for cutting the recessed portion
of the paper holder. Your actually cutting only an 1/8th of an inch of
wood per pass. This photo was taken after I was done. The blank for cutting
this is at least 12 inches long, even though you only need 5". This is
for safety's sake, too dangerous cutting like this on shorter pieces. The
hose is for the dust collector. Even with that running the sawdust flies!
It's necessary to clear out next to the fence after each pass. Please be
very careful, there is alot of blade sticking up there! Be aware of where
your hands are and where the blade begins. Keep your fingers on your hands!!! |

This is what you'll end up with when your done. After
you sand out the saw marks you'll have enough here to make two paper holders.
The two pics below show the profile, not much protruding from the wall.
The spindle holes are offset so the roll hangs squarely in the middle of
the concave fixture.
