I made this a few years ago and still use it regularly! The “spoon” side fills up with 1 portion of rice and the hole in the handle can fit 1 portion of spaghetti. What do you think?

  I sense i’m missing the joke, but in case it’q a genuine question: it doesn’t, it’s for weighing about 60grams of rice :)

    i was joking about how it’s not useful for me, because i lack your discipline and eat gigantic portions of fast food.
    
    it looks nice tho and reminds me of kitchen utensils my mom used

How did you make it?

  Machined it in two parts using my former workplace’s CNC (I only gave it this shape because I had access to it). The dark line you see is where the parts are glued together,
  and I added a black laminate interlayer thinking it’d add some style. Then did what felt like a year of sanding for such a small object, and some oil to finish it. I messed up the grain orientation though and the smaller hole in the back has been broken and glued back on already

I love this. We just use an old jam jar as our rice scoop (gives us about 4 dinner portions), but this is so much nicer looking! And I love that it can measure spaghetti too. That one is hard to get the right portion of.
