While the provided reference isn't directly about toilet paper (it mentions "Jantex Blue Roll"), the principle of removing the core is similar. Here's how you can remove the core from a roll of toilet paper or a similar paper product:
The video referenced shows how to remove the core from a Jantex Blue Roll, and typically, toilet paper cores are removed in a similar fashion (albeit on a smaller scale). The basic approach involves finding a point of weakness and working the core out.
Here are a few techniques:
-
Look for a Perforation or Seam: Many cardboard cores have a seam where the cardboard is joined. Sometimes, you can gently pry at this seam to loosen the core.
-
Squeeze and Twist: Gently squeeze the sides of the cardboard core to slightly deform it. Then, twist the core to try and break any adhesion to the paper.
-
Pinch and Pull: Pinch a small section of the cardboard core and try to pull it away from the roll. Repeat this around the circumference of the core.
-
Push From One End: If the core is only lightly attached, you might be able to push it out from one end using your fingers or a blunt object.
These methods work because the cores are often not glued very strongly to the paper. A little manipulation should free the core for easy removal.
