Wow!!! that is really cool! Here is to hoping it becomes available at
an affordable price.

It could potentially replace plastic??

Sounds like you can make it yourself. H2O2 + marine epoxy + vacuum bag.



And of course the question every one is waiting for... Can the
transparent wood be stained to look like wood?
Not sure but I'm sure you can paint red like cherry.

In all seriousness I think is pretty cool.
Cool but I'd like more details.

Like "Will it scale?"

I'm sure that a 1 mm thick window has some purpose, but not in a high rise.


You could layer it, like transparent plywood.


The layers of plywood are glued together, alternating the grain
direction.

Can you glue up layers of transparent wood and maintain the
transparency?

Can you determine the grain direction once its gone transparent?
(Im sure it could be tracked during manufacturing, but can it be seen
by the naked eye?)

Those are the the types of details that would be good to have.
