I thought this might work well for camping. Turn an empty CD spool into a reusable TP dispenser![[Linked Image from makezine.com]](http://www.makezine.com/blog/recycling_large.jpg) 1 tissue TP of any kind 2 Empty CD Holder (after CD's have all been used) 3 Cut the center of the top of the empty CD Holder (or unscrew spindle) with an exacto knife 4 Take out cardboard center of the TP roll 5 Place TP roll into CD holder and pull center of roll through the top Add colored/patterned paper to the inside of holder for added effect and to conceal the TP

I'm not sure since I haven't tried it yet. But, you could measure a roll of TP with a tape measure, then go to the store and measure the CD spool to see which size would fit best.
