And when I told them what I was looking for (after asking for info on catalogs/websites for supplies) every single one of them laughed at me and said "He can't tilt the pot?". ----------------------------------------- NOTICE: Due to Presidential Executive Orders, the National Security Agency may have read this email without warning, warrant, or notice, and certainly without probable cause.

Tilting big bubbling pots with one hand while weilding a spoon in the other is another opportunity for scalds, burns and making a mess. Work-arounds are not a substitute for the proper tool.

Not too small means you're pot may have significant headroom. Significant headroom makes getting a tastable spoon full with a flat (particularly the common round handled flat) spoon inconvenient.

Try and find, 'Alone in the Wilderness' - (Ashton) - Jan. 25, 2006, 03:13:03 AM EST

Sounds like you're looking for a ladle, not a spoon. 21 kB - (Another Scott) - (3) - Jan. 25, 2006, 08:09:07 AM EST

That's what I was thinking - (Meerkat) - Jan. 25, 2006, 08:54:51 AM EST

Well, that's a lot closer than any of the spoons . . . - (Andrew Grygus) - Jan. 25, 2006, 10:33:51 AM EST

That's for throwing water onto the stones on the sauna oven. - (CRConrad) - Jan. 25, 2006, 03:58:38 PM EST

What would a local machine shop charge? - (tonytib) - (3) - Jan. 25, 2006, 11:35:25 AM EST

Our machinist likes grinders - (tonytib) - (1) - Jan. 25, 2006, 05:33:49 PM EST

Grinders I know . . . - (Andrew Grygus) - Jan. 25, 2006, 07:23:47 PM EST

Have you looked at any Pampered Chef catalogs? - (imqwerky) - (5) - Jan. 25, 2006, 07:20:14 PM EST

My wife is a Pampered Chef junkie - (Steve Lowe) - Jan. 25, 2006, 07:26:53 PM EST

Well, those are nice, but once again they're straight. - (Andrew Grygus) - (3) - Jan. 25, 2006, 07:28:15 PM EST

Straight wood + steam + formers = bent wood. No? -NT - (Ashton) - (2) - Jan. 29, 2006, 04:55:34 AM EST

Hot soup would unbend that right away. - (Andrew Grygus) - (1) - Jan. 29, 2006, 10:54:26 AM EST

Sure you do - (drewk) - Jan. 29, 2006, 03:52:24 PM EST
