Spoon-Stick

I made a attachment for chopsticks that acts like a spoon to get the remaining broth. I made it because I don't want to dirty up a spoon to get the broth at the bottom of the bowl. I also don't want broth to dribble down my shirt.

• Chopsticks
• Any 3-D printer
• Your favorite spoon as a model for measuring.
• An accurate measuring device to calculate the outer diameter of your chopsticks. (I used digital calipers.)

Our problem is that, I love eating ramen noodles and the broth at the bottom of the bowl, but I don't like tipping the bowl up because I am a very messy eater, I also don't want to dirty up a clean spoon for it.

I used digital calipers to measure my favorite spoon and chopsticks.

The next step to creating this is to use Autodesk software to make a 3D model of what you want your Spoon-Stick to look like using the measurements from your original utensils. I chose Tinkercad. In my first design it was to thin. So in my second design I thickened it up, and while I did that I thought, I should add a keychain loop for traveling.

Next we have to print the Spoon-Stick so, I exported my design from Tinkercad into PrusaSlicer but you can use your favorite slicer. Then you print it as you would any other 3D print.

Now that you have one printed you can make ramen noodles and not have to tilt your bowl or dirty up a spoon. You just put the chopstick in the hole in the bottom your Spoon-Stick and your chopstick becomes the handle for your newly printed spoon.
