Wikihouse Projects. MicroHouse by OSE. Vers une nouvelle ville industrielle - Julien Vaissières - 2014. Using 3D Printers To Generate Villages Of Houses. Rome wasn't built in a day, but a village of 10 houses created out of 3D printed concrete parts has been constructed in just one day in Shanghai, China. And the even better news? Each one only cost around $5000. Oh, and they’re partly made out of recycled waste, too. The company that built the structures, WinSun Decoration Design Engineering Co, spent years perfecting the system which allowed them to achieve this impressive feat. They used a pretty hefty 150 meter long, 10 meter wide and 6 meter deep printer to generate the concrete constituents, which were then assembled together into small but sturdy buildings. The material used to construct the parts is a mixture of high grade cement, recycled construction waste and industrial waste, which is then reinforced with glass fibers.

The software used to design the parts also allows for the addition of things like plumbing and windows which can be added on after the building is erected. Images via 3ders.org. Home made home : bientôt tous architectes ? Après Wikipédia et Wikispeed, voici venue la Wikihouse. Crédits : Wikihouse Depuis le XXe siècle, les promoteurs immobiliers investissent de vastes espaces pour les rendre habitables. A l’aide d’engins de chantiers, à grands renforts d’ouvriers, ils font sortir de terre des barres d’immeubles ou des rangées de maisons imaginées par des architectes, pariant sur l’attractivité à venir de territoires entiers pour engranger des bénéfices.

Après de dures années de labeur, monsieur X décroche un crédit auprès d’une banque, achète son habitation et accéde enfin au rêve de la propriété. Valdeduz, Espagne. Au XXIe siècle, la donne pourrait progressivement changer : les nouveaux matériaux, couplés à la révolution numérique et à de nouveaux modes de fabrication décentralisés font de la construction d’une maison chose de plus en plus aisée.

Certes, on est encore loin de pouvoir télécharger gratuitement sa villa. La maison d'Alejandro Capdevila durant l'hiver à Wroclaw. 00:/Blog. Domerama. An Afternoon with the Handibot. I’ve never been much of a woodworker. While I can design and plan woodworking projects, the finesse that woodworkers have with wood always amazes me. That’s why CNC machines have always fascinated me. A few years ago I even built my own. I would love to have a full size CNC machine, but for me as a tinkerer, it’s cost and space prohibitive.

The Handibot is a portable CNC machine that you can carry around and drop on top of the work piece that you want to cut. I’ve had a lot of fun cutting out all kinds of widgets with it in the few months that I’ve had it. First, I needed something to cut. Next, I had to prepare the files. To prepare files for cutting, you need to setup tool paths. This is my parts layout, you can see that this is a toolpath for a larger CNC machine, but since it’s divided into tiles I can cut one of them at a time, working my way over the workpiece. But not before I swung over to Home Depot for some plywood! Here I am working my way down the first set of tiles. I Wood. CLICK-RAFT.
