What does everyone do about keeping toilet paper dry in a wet bath?

We purchased an over-the-tank toilet paper holder. Under the sink, there is an opening for the plumbing. I took a piece of wood and reinforced the edge of the opening. Now I hook the holder over that and the roll sits mostly underneath the sink in easy reach. We still need to take the paper out when showering as it will get splashed.

My solution was the Oceanair Dryroll. I know toilet paper is cheap and this thing was expensive, but after about the 5th messy/soggy mess-of-a-roll because my kids didn't remove the toilet paper before showering, or took TP into a wet bath and set it down, I decided a more elegant solution was needed.

Not idiot-proof though, if you don't actually close it before showing you'll still have the same mess, and yes, my youngest has done that too. So there's no silver bullet. Wink

As there are only 2 adults here, we just remove the roll, and if one of us forgets, we have a good laugh.

We simply mounted the toilet paper holder to the inside of the bathroom door. When showering, we leave the door open (keeping the toilet paper dry) and pull the curtain across the door opening. Leaving the door open gives us more elbow room to shower. Close the door when using the toilet and the TP is there, nice and dry! When I have time, I will show you the mod I came up with to improve on privacy.

Hello MoPod,

I realize you posted this two years ago, but we are thinking about making a mod like this on our 176T.  We were planning on making two drawers, in order to keep the upright braces where they are (or fairly close to where they are), for strength.  (Their current placement is 12" apart.)

Would you mind sharing how you moved the upright cross-braces, and whatever other modifications you made in order to accommodate this wonderfully wide drawer?

Thanks!
