Based on Robotoy's mention, I approached a client about using this, in
lieu of opaque glass, on two desk doors:

She "LOVED it!" picked out the "Shoji Warlon Sheet#5-Extra Strength" on
the above page, and I just ordered it this morning.


Cool. Not cheap, is it? I've been eyeing some of the new and
improved shoji papers for some upcoming CNC project ideas.


I'm thinking that $33/door is reasonable. Don't think I can get a boutique
glass for that price?

If too thick, why didn't you immediately think of your Festool saur?
I need to do a slight cutdown on an opaque acrylic insert panel for a
sunlight in a 30 y/o mobile if I get the carpeting job for its stairs
and porch, and I immediately thought of the Makita plunge saur.


There's always that. I was hoping it might cut like polycarbonate, which Is
quicker to do on the table saw.

Basically I don't have a clue, and neither did the salesperson I talked to
the other day. Someone in the know was supposed to return my call
yesterday, but no joy there yet.
