That sounds great. My plan is to join wood and metal, turn a nice taper down to the spoon on the lathe, leave the spoon full width, drill the snuff hole, then sculpt with the belt sander and Dremel. The butt end will be full diameter with a brass cap for pipe tamper use (and I think it will look cool). I’ll take pix so we can follow the construction. This will be a learning experience for me, so there may very well be some rejects!
You can send all rejects to Uncle Bodger’s Home for Wayward Snuff Spoons, which is located right next to the Uncle Bodger’s Home for Misfit Snuffs… please send all unwanted snuff there. 
Materials are here–the Cocobolo looks awesome. I think I may have gone overboard on the brass rod–.4375 sounded good, but is gonna take a lot of turning. My thought is to leave the rod full-size at the butt end for the tamper, then turn down the diameter for the handle, then taper both down and leave the business end reasonably large. This is going to be a heavy, bullet-proof spoon for sure. We’ll get Turkey Day out of the way, then I’ll post some pix. I’ve got a new live center for the lathe coming–not sure if I’ll need it for this project, so that might delay things.
Bodger, if this is a disaster, I will forward the mess to you forthwith. :)>-
I will be interested in getting some of these new snuff spoons. Look forward to seeing the photos.
@mecompco I will be glad to take them, but I fear your skill and artistry will keep me from my ill gotten gains. Best of luck, I hope it is a great success.
I decided to make a snuff spoon today. I made if out of jelutong. It’s my first attempt at making a snuff spoon. It took me about an hour after failing with a couple pen blanks and I broke one just before shaping the spoon, so all in all I probably invested close to three hours to actually get a spoon that functions. It holds about two to three times the amount of snuff as the titanium spoon I normally use and is 5 2/8 inches long. It also fits really nice just below the nostril and gives an even coating inside the nose. 
Very nice spoon, @Jim!
Thanks @fredh.
Very nice! Looks like that will provide a man-sized hit. 
Nice.
I know a monk who made snuff spoons out of multiple popsicle sticks that he varnished together (3 thick.)
This thread inspired me to go out to the shop today and make a spoon. This one is ivory…
@HBurlingameIII That is great, very well done.
I decided to make another spoon today. It’s 5 7/8 inches long and made out of cocobolo wood. 
That is a beautiful spoon @HBurlingamelll!
@jim that is very cool looking, good job! Looks like you are having some fun.

I am enjoying myself and have been inspired by @HBurlingameIII’s spoon so tomorrow it’s a deer antler spoon.
Good to see folks putting their hands to good use! Be great to keep this thread going.
Deer antler mini spoon. I have a greater appreciation for @HBurlingamelll’s spoon after trying to do something smaller and more precise.
