This looks crazy!

Remembers me madness on plastic windows in Ukraine, where lot of people buy machine-tools, with dreams, to sell plastic windows forever. Some even build full size factories.

But unfortunately all these ended, because hundreds of small businesses in ~10 years, filled all current needs of people, and plastic windows last about 20 years, so once market shrink by about 95%, because now all these tools will do 1/20 of market per year.

PS sure, war will change things, but even most pessimistic opinions, about 30% of homes need big repair (really much less, but now impossible to know exactly), and with existing capacity, they will be filled in cup of years.
