I tried to buy a La Fee spoon on ebay a while back, and I was tired of being outbid as well. The spoon is pretty cool... if you like the spoon, just order from them. I paid $7 less and due to their shipping, I had it on the end of auction day.

Spongey! That's mighty kind of you.
I can't have booze at my place.
My friend on the other hand, is a fellow non-recovering alcoholic, so I will send you her address soon as I get it... I can find her house but I have no idea what the actual address is.

I have all the spoons I could ever want due to my *association* with GB.
I think I'll make a bracelet out of one of 'em tonight. Maybe hang some glass beads out of the little holes???

I've always wanted a bracelet made from a spork.
I wonder if Kirk could make an absinthe spork..

Just wrap the spork around a wide, graduated mandrel.
Sponge Bob
May 12 2004, 07:10 AM
My mandrel dropped out.
Besides when I tried it the spork broke. Maybe I need a better grade of plastic.

How about making some glass spoons? Not for heavy duty use but there is some potential for creativity.
Sponge Bob
May 12 2004, 07:21 AM
Great idea, up until now I've never gotten drunk and broken my spoon.
Maybe silver absinthe glasses would be a better idea.

Great idea!!!
They make glass knitting needles (for display, not use). And I have made glass chopsticks and drink stirrers.
I'll work on it - but I'll need a wider diameter of boro.

I'd like to be your first customer. No kidding. I think it would cool.
Glassolalia

I'll try it with Effetre first, to see how it comes out - before making the leap to boro.
Oh - I bet Czeckerland shampoo glass would be gorgeous!!!

You have to heat your Spork to flatten it.
I'll go to lunch at Taco Bell today and pick up a Spork for you Spongy, and see what I can do. (I knew all those years I was a professional Model Maker would come in handy)
Sponge Bob

You da man! Be sure to drill some holes in it so that it will be an absinthe spork.
The world's most evil flatware, combined with its most evil drink.

If absinthe is the most evil drink, then why is it that the people drinking Filterated Czeckerland Xit appear to be brain damaged?
Justin
May 12 2004, 08:30 AM
It is from the toxic fumes they breath in when they light their Filterated Czeckerland Xit on fire on their plastic sporks.

The first absinthe Spork:
Having never seen an absinthe spoon before ,
my last apprentice made this for me about a year ago.
I had used a fork when I poured him a glass, and mentioned that I wanted some spoons. It has a wormwood blossom on it.

On a cause you always spit in it before you leave the room.
Of course we always spit in it after you leave the room.

It's really very small,
only about 4 " long.
