. Ruller, Pencil, Calliper
. A Dremel

This is a really slick idea, however I disagree with maintaining the handle (strictly aesthetics).

The use of this as a desk lamp however makes a bit more sense, with the ladle handle being the "arm".

Good job either way

Thats a nice idea, even more so for a kitchen.
I suggest trying to take a better close up picture, then adding it to the intro step? I think that the main picture does not do the lamp justice.

I agree with gmjhowe: It' a very nice idea, but your first picture should be your best one of the finished product.
