It would be nice for the teapot to make a comeback, since it used to be used to benchmark 3d computer graphics
The Utah Teapot.
I always wondered why someone from Utah would model a teapot. After all, it's not very American. But now that I've just done some digging...
Everything is clear to me now lol
Yeah, if it was a Utahn, it would probably be a soda cup.
Mormons drink lots of herbal (caffeine-free) tea.
It doesn’t have enough sharp edges, overhangs, etc that make the benchy useful to tuning and evaluating a 3D printer
Those could be added.
Put a window in that teapot!
What's needed is more like a carburetor.
