LoL as an 3D printer user, I aks… Does it make support?
Expression

Humans add in the supports manually during the print.

@Expression yes, i noticed but it would be cool if it could print like light parts for supporting overhangs and you can like knock it of easly

I would like to have seen the floors printed.
Regarding rebar comments, I imagine the concrete mixture contains fiberglass in the mix which I believe would enhance strength, depending on the span and engineered specified weight limit. I don’t think the Cathedral of Notre Dame had rebar in it’s structural core.

Not fibreglass but tiny, 7 to 10 mm long steel needles that make the concrete sturdy just as the traditional one!

Anyone with a 3D printers knows what a mess you can have with a failed print. It’s simple enough to just toss in the trash. A failed cement print that has solidified … not so much.

This gave me an idea, plastic/hemp 3d printed houses. Seems like a better material than cement for short term.

@EvenFive How do you plan on melting the kind of amount of plastic needed to make 8cm wide lines at an acceptable speed?
EvenFive
August 16, 2020 at 8:36 pm
@Expression scaled up hardware. The real problem is cooling the plastic.

I would like Argos (UK shop that offers no quibble returns) to stock 3D Printers. I will then _buy_ one, use it to print myself a 3D printer and then take the original _back_ to Argos.

Just what kind of temperature do you think are involved in printing plastic that you think you can just print 8cm wide lines of plastic like it’s nothing?

@Expression all I’m saying is sort out different kinds of plastics, then cut them up in small fine pieces and then melt them back together into one large project… kind of the same principle like a doddle gun, you don’t heat all the plastic at once… just the ones at the tip bringing your temperature must lower

Nice we have AI to replace workers. There has to be software AI can replace executives too since most companies executives meet revenue by laying off workers. An AI can do that way better and won’t have romantic relationship with another human. Like the Mickey D former CEO did.
Alex Bakshi
August 17, 2020 at 11:15 am
Distopians won’t let us do that. People think AI is dangerous and don’t think about the benefits it can give us. We humans are made to create. Only people like Musicians, Scientists, Programmers, Artists will never be replaced by AI because it’s based on creativity. A person who doesn’t create is useless and obsolete.
