Good thing the 3DP houses don’t need electrical wiring or plumbing.

A crane would then lift the printer out of the home, so the finishing touches could be completed. Gosh, I wonder if those finishing touches just might be the plumbing, electrical, windows and doors?

I’m sure the houses have HVAC, wiring, plumbing and everything else a stick-built or factory-built house has. How else would you sell them to real people?

Guy installed a few 3D printers in schools and now he’s a construction expert. Vaporware.

Can they make it ultra modern in the inside and colonial on the outside?

You don’t print wiring and plumbing.

You can “print” channels in the walls where wiring and pipes can be installed after the process is through.

I especially like the cement being poured without forms-Jesse Jackson’s economic violence.

It’s $10 k to lift an old house(colonial). Imagine pouring a new foundation with flexible hoses.

Cue that sound dot matrix printers made in the 80s.

You'll need some 3-D art to go inside those 3-D homes. Maybe hang it in the bathroom.
To: 2ndDivisionVet
Pity Englewood was a nice community. Affordable housing will decimate it.

Here is a
time lapse vid of the construction of that house. The claim is $4K cost.
While the house in the video still requires manual work, the team has a finished product.
To: HonkyTonkMan
Aren’t you the pessimist and naysayer tonight. There are scores of companies all over the world pursuing 3D Printed houses and the results are promising. Fast construction, low cost materials, reduction of skilled labor, energy efficient...lots,of good benefits.
Google “3D Printed House”and watch some of the videos. It’s quite fascinating.
To: HonkyTonkMan
They could sell those $4000 houses for $75000 to $100000 apiece here in Miami. No joke.

Read the guys website and you tell me what he has. Did you even read it? Then look at the video I shared.
Your comment is misplaced - I am bullish on the technology, skeptical of marketers overselling capabilities.
