This is my design of a large and functional ladle. It is printed in two parts that securely clip together. There are no supports needed for this print, and I recommend printing it using PETG, but PLA also works for this model.

Why I Designed a 3D-Printable Ladle
I have larger buckets of paint I often use, and I’m not particularly eager to pour paint from large buckets into smaller containers. There is always some left on the rim and dripping down the side. Also, sometimes dry paint comes off from the rim and ends in the other container.
So I designed this ladle in various sizes to scoop the paint from the buckets in well-defined amounts, and I can leave them in the paint bucket until I need them again.
