Sauna Ladle/ Saunakauha

This is my Latest and most updated Sauna Ladle / Saunakauha.

With such capable 3d printers these days, creating a usable Sauna Ladle is now as simple as loading ABS or ASA filament and pressing print.

Proven Performance

This design has been tested and proven in both electric and wood‑burning saunas.
After experimenting with multiple high‑temperature materials, plain ABS or ASA has proven to be the best all‑around choice.

Recommended Filaments

• Best overall: High‑quality ABS or ASA
  • Good durability in sauna conditions
  • The most comfortable touch, even after being heat soaked
• High‑heat option: PET‑CF or PET‑GF (Carbon Fiber or Glass Filled PET)
  • Excellent durability in sauna conditions
  • Will feel hotter than plain ABS once heat soaked, (keep in the water bucket)
• High Temp PLA
  • Good durability in sauna conditions when annealed correctly
  • Similar comfortability to touch after being heat soaked when compared to plain ABS and ASA.
  • MUST be taken care of to inhibit it from breaking down due to its biodegradable characteristics.

There are 7 sizes available.

• 198mm (A1 Mini and bigger)
• 208mm (A1 Mini and bigger)
• 283mm (Prusa MK4 and bigger)
• 315mm (XL, A1, P1, X1 and bigger)
• 320mm (XL, A1, P1, X1 and bigger)
• 358mm (XL, H Series and bigger)
• 418mm (XL, H Series and bigger)

I recommend Paramount's ABS "Military Khaki" Filament. Below are the links to Paramount's website and also a link to their Amazon page.
