Need a new house ? Why build when you can print !

China: Firm 3D prints 10 full-sized houses in a day

 

 

The cheap materials used during the printing process and the lack of manual labour means that each house can be printed for under $5,000, the 3dprinterplans website says.

 

If I had $5,000 I'd get one. You can even design your own and they will print it.The magic of modern tech, fabulous.

But will they withstand the next typhoon?

Well they are made with concrete so I recon they might stand up better than wooden houses.

Yes, just don't build it on a receding beachline.

Or on a flood plain unless it is on legs.

Darn right. You certainly do not want or need wet feet whilst taking afternoon tea on the lawn.
