I build home professionally and I have a 3d printer. In the amount of time site prep to get these things operating, we could have already framed and sheathed a house. Even with basic 3d printing, we need to level the bed and if it's out of level the print fails.
If I can just get some lumber and some guys, who don't care if the site is not level, and frame a house up in a few days. Why would I bother with getting a super expensive concrete jet and specialized know how.
