PiDish 3D Printer

I'd like to thank this forum for all the questions others asked which brought responses I have used to solve MANY of my print issues. I'm still working on a problem with bottom-side blur / light bleed-through, which I've ordered more pigment from Makerjuice to solve.
I built my printer myself, and have a Raspberry Pi 2 directly connected to a stepper motor driver. Because of this setup, I coded my printer in Python. I use Creation Workshop as a slicer and sometimes to place supports when I don't feel like doing them in AutoCAD. Thanks Steve for the wonderful software!
If you'd like to know more, I have blogged my progress throughout the summer. I would have introduced myself and the project sooner if this forum didn't already answer all my questions.
Here are my favorite prints so far, with the dice being a comparison of continuous printing:
