If you want one of these, they’re only $39.95 plus postage. The reason for the price is because I really don’t want to make one, so I’ll charge so much that only an idiot would want to buy one. I was thinking, though, that someday I’ll figure out how to make a 3D printable file for this, and then it might be fun for people to make their own. Unlike saucers, by the way, the spoonholder never has to be washed. So maybe it’s not so silly, after all, huh?
