I would really like to see a visual of how these different treatments lead to different results. To see the 'graph', with the actual end results. I know at top of article there were some pictures, maybe I'm missing it and it is linked somewhere.

Re: Graph-Based Ceramics
#12Cool, another computer nerd into ceramic and glazes! Glazes is actually glass where you mix all kinds of powdered element from the periodic table and melt them at 1200C to hopefully get a result you like. A unusual kind of chemistry. I am more interested in the glazes and the results he got than the crud app and the DB. Just read it in diagonal, but I don't see why a simple Django app wouldn't take care of this easil…
Seconding everything you said. I'm about to assemble my Cerambot 3D printer and get into the game too :D But yeah, the year is 2024, and the idea of using a relational database model to store relations is new again. Otherwise, this is a poster use case for SQLite.
First time seeing Cerambot - cool!
I was taught that compression of clay is a big factor in ceramic strength.
I’m curious, how fragile are the pieces? Will a cerambot mug survive a small (eg 4”) drop?

CNC pottery is so much fun. Highly recommend getting into Rhino / Grasshopper if you aren’t already. You can go as deep as you want, and programmatically generating gcode means the world is your oyster (or at least the clay is, or at least when it cooperates)
Will, I do all my stuff in OpenSCAD already :)
Like these knotty designs:

I procrastinated on getting into Rhino/Grasshopper because it's not FOSS, and now that I'm about to join the computational geometry team of a competing suite specifically focusing on parametric 3D for manufacturing, it might take even longer :D

I'll try to remember to respond to this comment after printing something with it :D
Re: Graph-Based Ceramics
#15I suggest you check out clayart mailing list:
https://lists.clayartforum.com/mailman/listinfo/clayart
You can get great feedback from some of the best potters in the world. Also the authors of one of the definitive books on Cone 6 glazes hang out there.
Re: Graph-Based Ceramics
#16I would definitely use a simple relational model for this. Or probably in practice just download the whole dataset and do everything locally because it's going to be so small. But I suppose this is an ad for the writer's graph database anyway.
It doesn't seem to be their database, and "download the dataset and do this locally" doesn't make sense to me in terms of building what they wanted.
oh, I misread
> I also happen to know the founders of Instant, which bills itself as a graph-based Firebase
as "to be one of the founders"
Regardless.
Re: Graph-Based Ceramics
#17I wonder if using Blender shader networks would be a good way to model this? Especially with procedural nodes, where interactions might be modeled.

Very cool! It will be interesting to see if you can get clay to do that kind of knot!
I do somewhat more conventional stuff, but still taking advantage of full control of gcode generation: https://www.instagram.com/23lumens
