Has anyone here tried using ammonia to "plasticize" wood? In this case not meaning impregnating the wood with plastic, but making the wood bendable.
A friend told me about this and it looked fascinating. Here is an article that describes it:
http://pubs.acs <dot> org/doi/abs/10.1021/ie50646a004?journalCode=iechad
It would be worth an experiment to see if:
1) it works
2) it changes the color of the wood dramatically
3) if it affects the ability to glue-laminate strips together when they dry.
It might be an alternative to steam bending. Worth an experment.

Ammonia to make wood flexible?
