Parametric Measuring Spoon

## Moved over from Takerbot's Thingiverse...#The volume of the bowl can be specified in ml. Image shows a 2ml version (and some too cheap, green tee ;-). The provided 5ml example equals a teaspoon, but I highly recommend to create your own with the included OpenSCAD source file. ---Fire up OpenSCAD and load the source file. Only six parameters need to be considered: volume = 5.0; // volume of the spoon in ml thickness = 1.4; // thickness of wall in mm gripDia = 7.0; // diameter of the grip gripLen = 80.0; // length of the grip gripAngle = 30.0; // angle of the bowl-grip joint sink = 0.4; // cut off the bottom a bit Most of them should be self explanatory. Pick a volume, a wall thickness and make the grip "look good" afterwards... The "sink" parameter cuts off a bit of the spoon's bottom and makes it flat. This results in a better adhesion to the printing bed. Small spoons (e.g. <5ml) may still require a raft. For goods that need to be measured by weight and not volume, it might be helpful to print a quick size test. If you set the following variable to "1" MINITESTGRIP = 0; // print test grip? 0/1 (off/on) the grip will be cut off and the resulting rest can be printed much quicker.
