The assignment was to design a kitchen tool. I decided to make a spatula. Exciting I know. Here are some sketches.
I had a hard time choosing one I wanted to make. Mostly because spatulas are boring. But, do you know what's not boring? Thats right, sex toys. Why not make a spatula that is also a sex toy?
...extra fun in the kitchen. The most difficult part was machining the handle/toy. It is made of solid aluminum and hand turned on the lathe.
The blade was cut on the plasma cam and then I polished everything to nice finish.
I haven't tried it out yet but I'm sure it does just fine flipping burgers.
