Clever ! https://www.homemadetools.net/forum/...BJRU5ErkJggg== Spring-loaded stubs for each end of roll. Normally sprung to open position. Push roll through they return to normally horizontal position inside tube at both ends. https://www.homemadetools.net/forum/...AASUVORK5CYII=
Even if you put it in backwards, just lift it through and out. Turn roll around and put it in correctly. (Pause GIF at 0:02 seconds and you'll see the spring-levers.)

Seth Wheeler patent in 1891. There is an image of correct way meant to orient roll on roller. The whole point of the patent for a roll of 'toilet paper'. https://www.homemadetools.net/forum/...AASUVORK5CYII=

Japanese Toilet Paper Thingy

I'm gonna build one. I'm gonna use see through acrylic. Get it ready for the museum. You'll see (get it? you'll see/ see through). Otherwise, even if I had enough Yen, I wouldn't know how to ask for one. I don't speak Japanese. Pictures are worth 2 words. I, really, like this thing !,,,Perhaps easily amused am I.

100% agree ipsumental, very clever and by correctly I assume you mean dangly bit out? I hate paper against the wall! Go into a long drop of a damp foggy morning and finding the paper stuck to the wall and moisture has wicked up into the roll is not nice!
