DIY Cathedral – now it's getting serious!

Why pay construction workers for decades when you can simply 3D print your own cathedral?
Start off easy with this one stone.

 

Each stone measures:
5 × 3 × 3 cm = 0.000045 m³ of finest plastic sandstone.

 

A real cathedral (let's take something small like Notre-Dame) has around 43,680 m³ of stone volume.
That's only about:
970,000,000 stones

 

Sounds doable, right?

 

Print time at 30 minutes per stone:

 

55,000 years of continuous operation
(plus a few minutes for the bell tower and rose window)

But hey – true Gothic architecture takes time!
And if you see this through to the end, you're not just a Maker, but officially a Master Builder of Patience.
