10 Completely 3D Printed Houses Built In Shanghai In Under A Day

Two years ago I put up an article about Enrico Dini, who was working on a 3D printer that would build a house. Well, it looks like someone in China liked that idea.

From the article on 3ders.org......

"While Hobbyist models of 3D printers are currently available for only a few hundred dollars and lets users feed plastics and polymers into a machine, the company takes this technology to a bigger level. Using concrete, instead of plastic, WinSun wants to revolutionize the way homes and other structures are built. "

"WinSun's 150(L) x 10(W) x 6.6(H) m gigantic 3D printer is capable of printing entire building within hours. The 'ink' it used is based on high-grade cement and glass fiber. Like traditional 3D printers, the system carefully spills out those materials layer by layer, consistently building upward."

Make the future happen faster is my new motto.
