If you're gonna 3d print a home go whole hog. Do the best type.

The ones where they inflate a balloon, shape rebar to the balloon, deflate the balloon a bit, then pour the concrete over with a similar concrete pouring mechanism.

Make that shit apocalypse proof.

Construction of the house is expected to cost $265,000. That’s on par, if not a bit more expensive, than building a conventionally framed home because it’s one home and not multiple projects that take advantage of scale, according to Citizen Robotics. The organization spent $80,000 on site preparation, city water and sewer and repairing the street, Woodman said. The home is expected to be sold for $224,500. It is capped at that price.

Citizen Robotics is almost finished with this 1,000-square-foot home, Michigan’s first 3D-printed house in Detroit on Monday, Sept. 25, 2023. That’s about four times higher than the median sale price of a home in Detroit — $55,000 — according to a Free Press analysis of 1,000 deed records. The average price, the analysis found, was $82,000.

The value of most home sales was under $100,000, according to a Detroit Future City report. Median sale prices have gone up in Detroit. Researchers found that from 2020 to 2021, the median sales price was $30,000, compared with $15,000 from 2012 to 2013.

The development process is what makes building difficult, Cook said. It’s not affordable right now to build one-off 3D printed homes, he said.

“We can make and design a bunch of homes,” he said. “That’s not the issue. It’s finding the land, making it affordable for people, making it available to people and being able to continue to do the work.”

This is pretty neat, though it seems like pricing is still going to be the biggest obstacle for now.

Rural areas have long faced the problem that old houses are worth much less than costs. However people with money build new anyway because if you expect to live there for a while a new house gets a lot of nice features (better insulation, nicer kitchen, and built to much high standards), while the used house is still a old thing that doesn't meet modern needs.

It takes a year to 3D print a home? What, are they using desktop 3D printers?

No, it’s an HP and they keep running out of Magenta

Look at this guy with the printer that lasts a year.

They could upgrade to a laser printer. Faster, but it will all be in black and white.

You can use crayons and markers to color in black and white laser prints.
