I'm teaching a class on hand-forged chopsticks at The Steel Yard in Providence, RI, this year!

Part 3. Finished prototype handmade steel tentacle chopsticks. There's room for improvement, but these turned out great for a first try. The tentacle ends feel very comfortable in the hand.

Part 2. Welding & center-punching the suckers on the prototype went well.

Next, add an organic bend at the end so that they don't look like tentacles that are "very happy" to see you.

Last night I tested putting teeny tiny tentacle suckers on 5/16 round stock. The goal being a prototype set of tentacle ended chopsticks. This went pretty well. So, on to the next step.
