“I’m just keeping a spoon at my workstation—makes perfect sense, right?”

With this clever mirror, you’ll never have to worry about your boss quietly sneaking up behind you while you’re “working” on something else again~

The mirror’s main body is a standard stainless steel spoon—available for purchase separately; most common spoons will do the trick. I tested every spoon I could find around me: whether round or oval, they all effectively reflect objects within a wide range behind you. Larger spoons offer even clearer reflections, and the greater the curvature of the spoon, the wider the viewing angle. The 3D‑printed component is nothing more than a highly realistic pen holder or cutlery box—though I recommend slipping a pair of chopsticks and one or two straws (the kind typically used for delivery orders) inside the box.

The spoon holder is designed in separate parts and requires simple assembly. The connecting interface uses a NATO rail—a common accessory found on photography gear (yes, you could even clamp it onto a tripod—but that would make it less convenient for securely holding the spoon). I’ve bundled and uploaded the complete model; feel free to modify it as needed—for example, adjust the holder’s dimensions or angle to better fit the spoon in your hand, or go ahead and integrate the holder into a single, unified design. You can also add your own favorite accents—but please share any modifications in accordance with the licensing agreement, and be sure not to use them for commercial purposes.
