Mr Spatula (a 5cm by 1cm spatula)

thingiverse

Mr Spatula is a 5cm x 1cm spatula. It exists to fulfil a very specific need I had: a spatula that I didn't mind ruining to mix, and apply, two-part epoxy. Because it's going to be ruined, I wanted to make it as small as possible to reduce waste. Making it so small and thin made it hard to grip, so I added the text, both as a nod to the character from Sam & Max and to aid grip. Print this with layer depths as small as you can stand on the spatula part, layer depth is unimportant for the text part. Turn walls and infill right down to reduce plastic use. I used 0.15 with 1 wall/top/bottom and 5% infill and it worked well because print quality was not my priority, though my bed was a bit high. The model is all my own work and the .stl file is released into the public domain.
