Overview
Utensil Rest — Drip Bowl + Handle Saddle
The stirring spoon has to go somewhere. Put it on the counter and the counter gets a stripe; put it in a flat spoon rest and the handle still lands in the sauce that ran off it. This one separates the two jobs:
THE HEAD GOES IN THE DRIP BOWL: a shallow elliptical dish, 98 x 66 mm across and 8.5 mm deep, cut as a true hemispherical section so its floor is lowest dead centre. Everything that runs off flows to one pool instead of creeping toward the rim.
THE HANDLE GOES UP ON THE SADDLE: a raised block at the far end, 30 mm tall, with a U-groove that cradles a handle up to about 16 mm across. The utensil bridges from bowl to saddle, so the handle never touches the counter and never sits in the drips.
Read the full description
THE RIBS ARE THE POINT Nine radial ribs stand 1.6 mm proud of the bowl floor and stop 7 mm short of the centre. The spoon rests ON the ribs, the drips run UNDER them and collect in the clear hub in the middle. A spoon in a plain dish sits and soaks in what it shed; here it doesn't. When it is time to clean up, the pool is in one place and the whole thing goes in the sink or on the top rack.
DETAILS 132 x 88 x 30 mm, one piece, no hardware, no glue. Prints flat on the plate with NO SUPPORTS at all. The body sides taper inward going up, so every layer is inset from the one below; the bowl is a cavity that narrows downward, so it is a bowl, not a ceiling; and the saddle's U-groove is cut by a cylinder whose axis sits ABOVE the saddle top, which makes the groove a widening U with no printed roof. 3.2 mm of solid floor under the deepest point of the bowl — no thin spot to crack when you drop a ladle into it. An engraved pinstripe follows the rim, 5 mm in from the edge. Engraved only, nothing bridges over it.
MAKE IT FIT YOUR UTENSILS The attached utensil_rest.scad is the exact parametric source this STL came from — every dimension above is a named variable at the top of the file:
body_l / body_w 132 / 88 mm overall footprint bowl_l / bowl_w 98 / 66 mm drip bowl mouth bowl_d 8.5 mm bowl depth saddle_h 30 mm how high the handle is held notch_r 9 mm handle groove radius (open up for a fat handle) rib_n / rib_h 9 / 1.6 mm how many anti-soak ribs, how proud they stand
A bigger rest for a serving spoon or a wok ladle: openscad -o big_rest.stl -D 'body_l=160' -D 'body_w=105' -D 'bowl_l=120' -D 'bowl_w=80' utensil_rest.scad
A taller saddle with a wider groove, for a long ladle with a thick handle: openscad -o ladle_rest.stl -D 'saddle_h=42' -D 'notch_r=12' utensil_rest.scad
A cutaway, to check the floor thickness before you commit 3 hours: openscad -o section.stl -D 'part="section"' utensil_rest.scad
There is an assertion in the file that fails the build if you make the bowl so deep that the floor goes thinner than floor_min — so you cannot accidentally export a rest with a 0.4 mm floor.
PRINTING PLA is fine for a rest beside the hob, PETG if it may touch a hot pan lid — PLA softens around 60 C. NOT for putting a pan on. 0.20 mm layers, 2-3 walls, 12% gyroid infill, NO SUPPORTS. Print it exactly as exported, flat side down. Nothing needs rotating. About 3 h, about 45 g. Cooling on the ribs matters: they are small, narrow features on a slope. If your cooling is turned down they come out rough. They still work — this is cosmetic — but stock Bambu PLA cooling gives them a much cleaner top. Big flat footprint, so bed adhesion is easy; a brim is not needed.
