Supplies

• Kitchen utensil with a hole in the handle
• 3d printer with at least 23 grams of PLA
• 2 stainless nuts and bolts with one being slightly smaller than the size of your spatula hole handle

Step 1: Download the Stl and Size Fitting

Download the STL and correct the size of the hole to the size of the spatula depression and a hole on the top of the handle adjusted to the nut and bolt you have on hand. I found that a 6mm hole fits most cooking utensils. If you do not have a hole in the utensil, create both holes corresponding to the bolt on hand.

Step 2: Application

Import it onto the Cura Lulzbot application or your preferred 3d printer app of your choosing. Make sure the infill density is set to 10% with a 10mm infill line distance and generate the support necessary for the handle form and structure. The 3d printing process is going to take around 1 hour and 25 minutes and uses around 23 grams of PLA.

Step 3: The Support

Break and tear away the support and sand the surface.

Step 4: Drilling TheTop Part of the Handle

Drill one side of the handle without the hole to the spatula of your choosing, make sure the hole of the handle corresponds with the spatula as well as center the drill hole with the handle hole that you have made for the other side

Step 5: Bolting the Spatula

Use an around 6mm thick stainless steel nut and bolt to secure the handle to the spatula. When testing, I found that not using a stainless steel nut and bolt will result in the attachment creating rust and overall contamination while cooking.

Step 6: Enjoy!

Enjoy your new handle-assist spatula!
