Introduction: Homemade Spork/knife
Since i have always wanted a spork but always found them too expensive. I thought let's make one myself
Step 1: Thing You'll Need
-An old spoon
-A hacksaw an anglegrinder or a dremel
-a couple of needle files i used a round one and a halfround one
-a marker
-some sandpaper

Step 2: Design
Use the marker to draw out the design you want to make.
Step 3: Sawing
First I used my dremel to cut it to length. Then I cut out the fork section of the spork. (Optionally you could use a round needle file to make a serrated section.) Then i filed the prongs of the fork to a sharp point and filed all the cut pieces round.
Step 4: Sanding
I used sanpaper from 120-400 grit to smooth all the edges so i wont cut myself.
Step 5: Washing
After i sanded everything I first washed it with regular dish soap and then put in the dishwasher to get it completely clean of any metal filings
Step 6: Use It!
In the end it worked out really nicely and it was very easy to make. It's a great tool for camping because it's the only utensil you'll ever need and its pretty lightweight and durable. I hope you liked my instructable! Leave a comment if you have any suggestions
