The study also looked at casting the blocks. The cast ones were stronger but they noted some problems with their printing process.

They mention a lot of the usual upsides of 3d printing. It’s easy to iterate on a design, easy to modify to a particular need, and allows for geometry that’s impossible for other methods.

They snap together kinda like 2x1 legos.
