3D wood printing is what someone needs to be working on. Here is what they can do with pancake batter. Why not wood?

That's close Rich. Not quite like other 3D printing technology but certainly, as they call it, additive. I can see a 3D wood printer in the near future, probably making trivets or knick knacks, artistic things, maybe stuff that get post processed with a laser for example. Structural stuff like furniture??? Maybe someday, although lots of us might no longer call it wood.
I think it wouldn't really be wood any more, really just sawdust and glue, kind of like MDF.
How about just printing your whole house?

According to the video, a skyscraper is the future. Not sure I'd want to be one of the first tenants though.Quote:
