Paper towel & dispenser

[Steevo]

Any recommendations of the best type of dispenser or paper towel to use?

Is the standard thin blue paper towel roll the best to go for?

Have a sink and disposable gloves to use for hands, but sometimes a rag is handy to wipe and clean things.

If blue roll gets at all oily do not expose to angle grinder sparks etc extremely flamable.

I find there's 2 types of towel available. A smooth one and a textured one.
Get the textured one.

That's a full blown spill kit

We use a lot of blue roll, tried a few dispensers over the years, I ended up making my own, may have slightly over engineered it by using 3mm steel.

Its shame they shred it all up, years ago at my first job boss would get bin bags full for £2 at the local charity shop. Most of my work t shirts and jumpers came out of them bags! was some really good stuff in there sometimes.

Buy the green udder wipe roll. Far better than that fluffy blue stuff that falls apart. Maybe 27 quid a pack of six but worth it.
also handy to get some textured hand wipes in a dispenser bucket for oil and grease removal..... handy for wiping grease off anything really.

Last time I got blue twin roll 11 to 12 pounds for pack of six. This didn't fall apart.

Easiest dispenser is a small shelf with a 3-4" hole holesawed in it.

Sit roll over the hole and cenntrefeed it out

Easy enough to make a holder for blue roll, just look at your toilet roll holder and enlarge

A broken rake arm is ideal, has a range of holes to fit a bolt to stop said roll coming off, just trim to size and weld to something!!

Length of copper pipe through the top of two pigtail electric fence posts roll bend the posts to suit where it’s fixed simple bodge

Old cotton hand towel on a roll is what I use. Sometimes buy it precut in a box, excellent stuff.

 

[Hesstondriver]

i buy the center feed rolls , and for a holder use a mineral bucket & lid and a hole in the bottom. it hangs in the workshop (protected from sparks and spaniel pup) and just pull it as required

We used to get stuff like that from Oxfam in, but it went downhill, they started putting lots of wool and man made fibres in the packs, useless for oil spills, for a couple of years we had a local firm who made pyjamas, great until they went out of business.
