Thank you to lukes3d for the nice design for a simple paper towel holder. The files I modified are from the original version (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5256806) for reference, which works fine other than the high stress area where you can see it eventually broke (shown in pics) after about 6 months of use.
I updated the design to include some fillets where mine broke at the top to avoid the high stress concentration under bending when unloading/loading paper towel rolls.
I also chamfered and rounded out the post that holds the paper towel roll so it's easier to put a new roll on as that would be my only operational complaint (it's a tight fit when paper towel rolls are commonly squished out of round).
Lastly, I increased the width of the top part that has the screw holes in it so it has an even amount of material on either side of the holes.
