    Ok this set is cute and all, but super unwieldy looking:

    I should not feel a need to use 2 hands for a simple shaker. Being collector’s items, I wouldn’t use them anyway, but that’s beside the point.

      Missed opportunity with the saucer there to actually carry sauce. Separate the saucer section to get the salt and pepper nacelles

        The shuttle pod could be used as a butter dish - lift up the shuttle pod which is just a cover for a plate of butter underneath.

          You have the best ideas!

          Do you realize how rare that is!?:-P

            Geniuses occasionally doing incredibly boneheaded things is one of my favourite tropes, humanises them.

      These come out with the good silverware for guests, obviously.

      I feel like a Trekkie collecting those instead of the hourglass ones is like letting Dr. Elsa pick your Holy Grail for you.

      “That’s the salt shaker of a low-budget sci-fi show!”

        Appreciate the reference.

        Edit: Had to include this moment.

        Jones Sr. and Jr. are Eskimo brothers.

          Perfect team to get ahead of Elsa’s mind games. After wards, they were inoculated to her Saffron-esque powers. EDIT: look out for STDs, Joneses! Do not wait for your annual checkup.

        The cardboard set of a Carpenter. ;) It just occurred to me that Dr. Elsa didn’t just make a mistake in choosing the gaudy one first, did she? She purposely chose it to get rid of that guy who drank from it. Then, she screamed when he became all corpsified and gross, but it was all an act to gain sympathy from the others. ELSA KNEW.

      I still want them. I want to put them between my MST3k funko pops and my MASH vodka IV bottle.

    I showed this to my wife and a few minutes later she shared an ebay listing for the Stelton wood and chrome shakers like the ones used for McCoy’s laser scalpel, and now a pair are headed to us.

    “I was just thinking yesterday we needed better shakers.”

          Spock will get just as much oo-mox as ever, but can he handle it with his high blood pressure?

    No person in history has ever used one of those phaser-shakers for salt or pepper, right?

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally “othering” of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That’s okay! Just don’t let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it’s free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not ‘inspire jamaharon’
