/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Could I get solder and then sand it down?

Tell us why you want to do this?

>>2419595
serial numbers, Bro

>>2419595
I have an undying hatred for the fact that I can find a metric set of measuring cups, but i can't find a Customary Set of measuring cups, only cups that are in metric and in Customary and to cope i would like to disappear it off my measuring spoons.

>>2419614
Based.

Fuck rationalism and fuck the French.

>>2419616
I'm thinking about maybe 3d printing? Will probably be easier than messing around with steal. Not sure of the health hazards but idrc either

>>2419614
Based as fuck... So you only need to get rid of the metric measurements? If so could you cut a hole where the ML measurements are and then lop off the end of the spoon to make the new hole where you would put them onto the ring?

>not using actual spoons

>>2419614
Imperial bros why can't we stop losing?!

>the cupcakes were made with blackmarket measuring spoons

You either have to remove the surrounding material until it reaches the level at the bottom of the engraved groove, or fill the grooves with metal to the level of the surrounding metal. The latter would probably be very visible though even after you grind it down flat again.

If you're any kind of cook you should be able to estimate volume from 1/8t up to 1T, therefore have no need for those measuring spoons. Anything over 1T you should be using weight instead, because it's more accurate and easier anyway, and less to wash later.

>>2419745
Literally zero of my recipe books are in weight, and weight is gay

>>2419652
Hmm good idea, what could I use to drill the hole with? (I've never done anything like this, working with metal)

>>2419745
>>2419851
And also I'm not really a cook at all, but I want to try to learn

>>2419854
Drill bit in appropriate size on either end and then connect the dots with a little 1/8" carbide burr in the middle. Some needle files to smooth it all out.

>>2419866
Ah, alright, thank you very much

>>2419745
I'm certainly a better cook than you, and I use small measuring spoons all the time, to translate recipes from volume to weight.

>>2419614
>imperial fag screeches so hard at metric he can't even so them in their tools
I mean, if you are against metric so bad, why do you need proper measurements?

>>2419877
why would you ever cook using volume instead of weight?

>>2419595
i found a gun. and i want test removing serial number on the spoons first.

>>2419893
>why would you ever cook using volume instead of weight?
Volume is convenient for liquids.

>>2419877
No you don't. If you do it "all the time" your a retard that can't write things down, use Google, or think for yourself. Let's hear what ingredients are so rare and difficult to work with that you need to use imperial measuring spoons to convert them to weight so often.

>>2419890
>I mean, if you are against metric so bad, why do you need proper measurements?
ESL, what are you trying to say?

>>2419893
volume is good for measurements less than a gram

>>2419903
Jamal, pls

>>2419583
Try JB Weld

>>2420537
Or liquid metal

>>2419905
>volume for liquids
I would still suggest using weight.
>>2420265
>volume is good for measurements less than a gram
Even cheap electronic scales will accurately measure tenths of a gram.

>>2419914
I worked as a chef for several years, but now I'm with a restaurant consulting business. I do anything back of house where efficiency or process can be improved, and it's quite common to convert recipes in the way I described during recipe standardization, or menu redesign/rework.

>Let's hear what ingredients are so rare and difficult to work with
Your premise is flawed, but 'salt' is a reasonable answer. "If you're any kind of cook" you should know why.

he's a cereal killer and doesn't want to risk having the spoons traced back to him
