DIY - Tape Dispenser - Multiroll

I created myself a multi roll tape dispenser with some wood and repurposed plastic parts.

The wood in pine boards. The base is 3 3/8 inches deep, 3/4 inches tall and 9 1/4 inches wide.

The 2 upright sides are 4' tall, 2 3/8 in deep, and 3/4 inches wide.

The ends are attached to the base with screws from the bottom.

I nailed a thin piece of pine wood across the front to which I wired the hack saw blade which serves as the cutter.

I finished the wood with a rub of Tung Oil.

The holder measured 9.25" W x 4" T x 2.5 inches D.

The plastic tube that the rolls slide onto and plastic ends were taken from a Scotch Washi Tape dispenser.  That dispenser only accommodated washi tape sized rolls and I wanted all my tape in the same place.

I used my Dremel tool with a cutter blade to cut the tube holders from the dispenser.

I used a drill to make holes in the plastic ends to attach them to the uprights at either end. I used screws and washers to protect the holes.  

The length of the tube determined the width of the holder because it needed to fit in the circles on either end.
