Found this on line, build a lens from a roll of toilet paper. He admits the images it produces are "crappy".
But you can always take it apart and return it to it's designed purpose.

I think he is on a Roll. This lens should wipe up the competition.

I wonder how many shots he gets per roll.

if it is dual ply then there is a backup shot.

Depends on if he used a standard roll or one of the "mega rolls"

First time someone came back from the store with a bail of that stuff I had to change the brackets in our bathrooms to use it. Of course someone had torn the plastic wrap and tried to put one on the standard dispenser so I couldn't return it. Now it is what we buy, don't need to change rolls as often.

Whole new perspective on the phrase "Going down the tube".

But if it is Charmin Ultra Soft all the images are too soft to be usable so why backup?
