Comments on Contour Crafting: 3D House Printer
Perhaps you've used those programs that let you design your dream house, creating a Computer Aided Design (CAD) file. Not quite ready to take up the hammer and start building? What if you could just "print" your house? (Read the complete story)

"hi i would like to have a detailed idea about how this technology works "

"Dear: God’s Creation, How are you? I’m blessed by Jesus. Are you saved? If so Praise Jesus!. If not this is why you need to get saved. “And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.” Revelation 20:15. This is how to get saved. “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Romans 10:13. If you would like to get saved you can say this prayer below or one similar, but you have to mean it.
(Well, now I've seen everything - religious comment spam. Don't these people know that that one of the [less important, admittedly] circles of hell are reserved for people who spam other people's websites? So, I'm supposed to filter for the word 'Jesus' along with s***, f*** and all the rest? Sheesh.

"Have you any idea how many people you're going to make jobless? Is that so that the "low income housing" facet of your vision can take off."

"The next couple of years is the perfect time to introduce this technology. By that time there will be no home builders left and when the building market finally comes back to life nobody can whine about losing his/her job."
(Bob 9/29/2008 11:58:21 PM)
"This will not cost people jobs, besides, the way people build today are very harmful to God's green earth. The environmentally crippling amount of waste from today's building practices and the removal of humanity and dignity from once a noble trade of building due to the slave-like working conditions in the job site today. There needs to be a revolutionary method & technology of building. I think this is a great start. Those construction workers will evolve in the era of the industry far from the archaic and wasteful practices of today. @L Vanhelsue - I urge you to think about not just the short term effects but also the long term gains, think hollistically, think smarter.
