If you assume that the average fit adult male is 155lb, and female 127.5lb (taken from online charts), so assuming equal numbers of each gender the average is about 140lb.
So, you only need about 640tns of CHON (plus trace elements) for 10 thousand.
Alternativly, use The Professors machine as a guide and say 200lb each, call it 220lbs to ensure you get clothes and basic equipment, so 1000tns for 10 thousand Literati. (I'm using metric tonnes, here, 220lbs or 100kg per ton, for ease.)
[[You're making people, so making clothes to fit them makes sense, and reduces the 'R' rateing risks!]
Mining robots directed by AIs, feeding automated refining equipment, should easily be able to do this over a few years, hollowing-out an asteroid that masses over a megatonne, even if the mix of elements contains only about 10% CHON; 1% would be OK, only using a tenth of the asteroid.
The Catgirling Machine takes 15mins to remangle someone, The Professors machine takes one or two hours to more than a day to make a Julian Friez from raw chemicals, so call it twelve hours for simplicity.
Say there were six Bioroid Moulds, a reasonable harem size, and that they've been used and kept in repair continuously by an unsleeping robot workforce directed by AIs. Assume that, due to repairs, you've had the equivalent of five of those available.
So, you get ten Literati a day, about 2.75 years for ten thousand. About 3650 per year.
The math looks OK...
The question is: does this suit the sort of story you're trying to tell for Fenspace?
[[I wonder if the original harem, say the six girls of "Love Hina", is still about, 'on ice'? And, if woken, they have any opinions about being someone's 'harem'? I've this suspicion that the original deceased Mad didn't think about his harem not agreeing with the idea.]
