Improved Ultralight Long Handle Backpacking Spoon

thingiverse

I printed the great spoon from nomaddisruptions and identified a couple things I would change for personal use. Primarily, a wider spoon shovel with an angle to make it easier to scoop soup and less sticky foods from the bottom of freeze dried food bags. Next, the handle and carabiner/paracord hole were widened a little. While the current handle was sturdy, I felt that a small increase in size would improve handleability at a weight penalty and the larger hole would allow for a larger variety of carabiners to be compatible. I do recommend going with a food safe plastic if you plan to eat hot foods or stir boiling water. The PLA filament is not ideal.
