Ponoko now offers a service to 3d print glazed ceramic. Objects are printed with alumina silica then glazed with porcelain and silica, which is food safe and heat resistant. I’ve decided to give it a try – I designed an oil/vinegar/salad dressing carafe (pourer?) that has a lip under the spout to return dripped oil back inside via a hole at the back.

Since I started this site in July 2010 (10 months ago), it has received 5,639 spam messages. Early on I installed the Akismet plugin to filter the spam messages from the legitimate comments, which has had a 99.98% success rate. I haven’t checked through the spam folder for false-positives, so I can’t verify if this is true or not, but I’m going to assume it is.
Today I added a reCAPTCHA form to the comments section – hopefully this will significantly reduce the number of bots being able to comment.
I’ll update this page with stats in the future
