A scrolling whiteboard that never asks you to erase anything

VÄGGRULLE — Swedish for “wall roll” — is a wall-mounted paper roll holder with a twist: the paper feeds from the bottom, not the top. Fresh paper rolls up from the lower holder, climbs the wall behind a small upper shelf, and winds onto a take-up roll at the top. Magnets hold the paper flat so you can write on it like a whiteboard.

Bottom-feed matters. It matches how we write — when you need more space you get it below what you’ve just written. Nothing ever needs to be erased. Receipts, sketches and to-do lists all roll quietly into the archive, and you decide what to do with them when the roll runs out.

Two shelves come built in. The big lower one takes a pot of pens, a coffee cup, post-its or your phone. The small upper one is for permanent markers, the magnets when they’re not in use, and anything else best kept above small hands.

Assembly is simple — no harder than fixing a couple of shelves to the wall. It works equally well at home or in an office, and you can mount it tall, short, high or low to fit your wall.

The CAD files are open on Onshape under a CC BY-NC-SA licence, and the build, materials and EU compliance documentation lives on GitHub. Pair the unit with any standard 45 cm wide drawing-paper roll — IKEA’s MÅLA (article 704.610.88) fits nicely.
