Moneymaker Administrator Posts: 13182 From: Lyons, IL, USA Registered: May 99	posted 06-08-2002 10:32 AM OK,now it's time for the age old question that starts many in argument in most heterosexual households. Which way do you install the toilet paper roll on the dispenser? So the paper pulls off the bottom (the way it is supposed to be) , or the wrong way ...so the paper pulls off the top? ------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator/ non 65-66 Mustang owner sensitivity co-ordinator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member NHRA and IHRA SS/LA National Record Holder '00, '01, & '02 Fleet of FoMoCo products including 88 ASC McLaren Mustang #28 Part time secret agent license #0089 Professional Manwhore The Barry of BarrysGrrl IP: Logged

After a night of Tall Boy Buds and Taco Bell Bean Burritos----challenge anyone to use an over the top roll!!! Maybe the "dainty dabbers" can make do with a square but.......... IP: Logged

fordnmerc Gearhead Posts: 196 From: Watkins Glen, NY USA Registered: Mar 2002	posted 06-09-2002 08:30 AM If the roll is installed properly, you can always see what you are getting and it tears off more easily. If it is installed improperly, so that it goes up over and down behind, it is a real pain in the a$$! And who needs one more pain, especially if you have experienced a....log jam that practically needs dynamite to break loose! ------------------ David "Lean on me.

gttorinofan Gearhead Posts: 177 From: Charlevoix, mi, USA Registered: Mar 2002	posted 06-10-2002 02:55 PM Heres my .02. If you hang it so it rolls off the bottom it will not come off the roll when toddlers play how fast can you make the TP roll go. If it comes off the top the rolls turns towards them and poof TP all over the place. ------------------ You can never own too many cars. 68 Torino GT Fastback 75 Bronco 82 Capri 5.0 IP: Logged
RickBook Journeyman Posts: 77 From: Houston, TX Registered: Apr 2002	posted 06-11-2002 12:44 AM Guys (and Gals), There is actually a way to reslove this 'tissue issue'. Simply mount the TP Hanger Assembly on a single horizontal axis (perpindicular to the axis of the roll). A 3/8" bolt with spacer(s) and a nylon nut will do the trick. Just apply enough pressure so the roll doesn't spin freely - only when using a small amount of force. When the roll is not hanging to suit you, simply rotate the hanger 180 degrees (about the axis of the bolt) to change the angle of the dangle. Now, how many of you actually questioned me, went to your bathroom, removed the roll and tried it with just the TP roll? Oh ye of little faith, Rick ------------------ Building 1970 Grabber, 347 EFI, AOD, 9" [This message has been edited by RickBook (edited 06-11-2002).] IP: Logged
Dave Witthoeft Gearhead Posts: 1728 From: IL. Registered: Dec 2000	posted 06-11-2002 05:27 AM It should be decided by whomever actualy remembers to put a new roll on! [This message has been edited by Dave Witthoeft (edited 06-11-2002).] IP: Logged

fordnmerc Gearhead Posts: 196 From: Watkins Glen, NY USA Registered: Mar 2002	posted 06-11-2002 03:04 PM Rick, Basically, a knife switch style of apparatus. Pivot at the center and the arm that the roll is mounted on swings in an arc of 180 degrees. Have it snap in place on either side. Very quick change, depending on who likes it one way and who the other. And everyone would be happy! We oughta take out a patent! But then, the argument would be about white or colored paper, perfumed or unperfumed, soft or softer tissue! Ya can't please all of the people all of the time! Unless you are out in the street throwing money! Well, even then they may get you for inciting a riot. If a lot of people will wig out over a simple soccer game.... ------------------ David "Lean on me. I am just another dumb fence post." 1979 Ranchero GT 1990 Grand Marquis GS IP: Logged

Therefore,it's a woman's concept to install the roll upside down. Typical,women can't fix anything around here.... [This message has been edited by MLariviere (edited 06-11-2002).] IP: Logged

289 Rod Journeyman Posts: 63 From: Laguna Niguel, CA, USA Registered: Oct 2001	posted 06-15-2002 02:55 PM IMHO, I like the Over The Top Method freely flowing TP. Last week I had some good TP, don't know the brand but man was that soft, felt like cloth not paper. My friend is in the marines. When he was in boot camp they had about 30 guys, 6 toilets with out stalls (nice and open!), and 1 minute to piss. So they would have 5 guys around each toilet all aiming for the toilet. So many fights started when someones aim was off. ------------------ '65 Mustang Black/Black Pony Interior 289 4V 4 speed Manual Weiand Dual Plane,AFR 165cc, Comp Cam Pro Magnum Rocker Arms, 3.55 Rearend, 2.5 inch exhaust with headers and loud!
