24 Yr Old Builds Concrete Printer | Robotic Arm On Tracks

His intrigue in blending various construction materials on the job site like steel concrete and lumber should be a promising strategy for bringing automation to the masses.

What an awesome journey with inspirational results Tom Macrokonis. Thanks for having the courage to persist in the face of fear of change. As difficult as it is to go from self financed until financed, it's worth the trip. As a joyously old hippie, I am so grateful for your generation. Thank you for going forward.
Most of you understand the opportunities cyber capabilities provide to translate ideas into reality, printing effective solutions. Constructive ideas (housing) when wisely managed produce constructive results (housed).
Jarett Gross put up a piece about a year ago showing how long 3d printing has been a known construction technique - The Real First 3D Printed Building (1930's). Though the technology of 3d printing has been around for almost a hundred years, it's still considered new. Speaking of blending materials(steel, concrete & lumber), please check in addition to 3d, ultra violet, laser plus what's next printing.
What I love most about "Automate Construction" is the concept removes limitations on how we grow the industry / art form. Keep on printing and posting.

Pumicecrete is by far the best building material on the planet Pumicecrete is a mixture of pumice cement and water mixed and poured into a set of reusable forms walls are poured from 12"to 24" thick pumicecrete is fireproof termite proof rust rot and mold proof non toxic and has a high R value and good sound attenuation solid poured walls means no critters can live in your walls Pumicecrete can be built for a fraction of the cost and time and pumice is one of the few building materials that can go directly from the mine to the job site ready to use without any additional possessing and zero waste Google all the walls of my house are made of pumicecrete
Take care Ray

Good onya mate .... Still -- if you're going to do a review on a home built printer a photo wouldn't go astray.

What was the reason behind the lawsuit?

I'll bring that up in a future episode with Tom when the dust has settled.
