With all due respect for your work and intentions, please explain to me (hairy reasoner) two things:

1) How would the hypothetical 15 days/home reduced to 24h/home be relevant [1]

2) How the new machine is compatible with the statement on your site:

https://newstorycharity.org/sponsor/

>Built By Locals

>By training local labor and buying locally sourced construction materials your donation not only builds a home, but it stimulates local economies and teaches skills in the process.

[1] Please consider also how the 24h are per home is also per machine/robot, if you assemble 15 teams of local builders you have exactly the same production

I am similarly cynical. Can you explain why it is not better to use something simple, like cinder blocks, and put people to work in low wage/low employment/low skill environment? My only guess is because there is no place for your tech in that equation but, it seems better if you are really trying to make this a social mission.
