A few years ago I tried making transparent wood and it kind of worked. The pieces that I made were somewhat okay, but I was never really happy with the result. I finally decided to try it again though!

@sophia7715 9 месяцев назад

I did a short project on this for my chemistry class! In my research I learned a lot about delignification, etc., but I was still pretty confused on how the process worked. The articles and papers I read made it seem really simple and I thought there must be something I was missing. This video would have been super helpful if I had found it. Edit: however, I will say that the process I learned about specifically didn’t remove the lignin to avoid encountering structural issues with the wood after having like half its components removed. Instead, they applied a wash of some sort of acid or base (I think? It’s been a while and I don’t quite remember) and left the wood in the sun for a period of time. This was supposed to make the pigment inside the lignin transparent instead of removing the lignin in its entirety. This is the part I was confused about, because it seemed deceptively simple. I’d love to see a video on this process, to see if it really is that simple!

@MelissaTodd-yz4vs 27 дней назад

Two years later I'm scrolling through the comments looking for someone suggesting that you sand the wood pieces (dry, very fine grit, always with the grain never against) before and after bleaching them to maybe avoid some of those finish issues later on. Polishing the plastic surface at the end made the piece itself beautifully smooth and shiny, but I suspect the raised wood grain inside the plastic is causing a lot of the haziness and contributing to the initial rough texture of the piece coming out of the oven. You're not really casting acrylic around the wood so I'm not entirely sure if the process would benefit from containing the acrylic goo to keep the wood submerged before curing it, but my gut says it wouldn't hurt to try.

The final result honestly looks like something I'd want my shower windows to be made of. I think it wood be cool to shower in a transparent, wooden shower.

Plus, if the panes don't come out as clear as the final result, then it works well as a privacy screen.

Honestly, it looks like frosted glass. The really nice kind that you find on doors!

While it is in the oven, just flip the entire thing once in a while, so that, gravity works equally on both sides. You would have to do the flipping more during the beginning itself because the longer you wait, the acrylic will start solidifying and wouldn’t flow as a liquid. Try this once if possible.
