so i had a dream where a group and i were magically summoning like, liquid stone and by-hand forming it into walls--this is clearly half-baked and inefficient--so how would YOU make or enhance construction processes using magic, sci-fi technology, or fictional materials?

    i'm imagining this somewhat like a highlight box for placing objects in a game, but integrated into the setting, cool stuff. gravel sand and sawdust don't seem like the most sturdy of materials though, how does it become structurally sound? must it even or can you design a gossamer that immediately collapses

      Still figuring those things out tbh but when the material fuses together into a solid object, so the granite dust becomes a solid block of it, sawdust becomes something like hyper-condensed super sturdy particle board etc.

      Structurally unsound? You got it. Even a building made of solid stone can collapse under its own weight if the architect is a dipshit.
