Houses are so close together, you could ask your neighbors for toilet paper while sitting on the pot.

You can't 3D print the roof, the doors, the windows, the plumbing, the wiring, the interior, etc....

The foundation, the driveway, and the sidewalk are made of actual concrete, poured the good old fashioned way. The only thing this machine did is 3D print some walls. That's it. So no, it did not 3D print a house. Not even close.
