Super simple stocking stufer

What is it?

This has got to be the simplest “made on a Glowforge”: a tea bag squeezer spoon. Just one “obloid” shape cut out of medium white acrylic. I then used a strip heater to warm the plastic and fold/bend into shape around a wood dowel.

Use it to stir your brewing tea, then pull the string to squeeze the tea bag.

Just a box of your flavorite tea bags and you’ve got a simple and fun stocking stuffer.

Embarrassingly simple file if you want it…

Nice idea, however I don’t squeeze my tea bags…it creates bitter tea since it puts the tannins back into the tea…now if could be adapted for a toothpaste roll…that, I would use! Lol

Very cool! I don’t think the bending of acrylic has been explored in this forum nearly enough, so it was great to see this.

Cute!

Happy day of the cake, @smcgathyfay. We’re all so glad you’re still around here. But, you know $(@*# happens and even when you go missing for a while, the masses rise up until you’re back in. Part of the quirkiness of this place. :smile:
