Made these from some Blow down Bamboo.

Good thinking. That's an interesting use of it.  Looks like what we called Chinese Bamboo down in Fort Pierce.  My Uncle has a stand of Chinese Bamboo.  Back when I was in Boy Scouts, Tom and I built rafts out of it to float down the St. Lucie River.  We had a neighbor, Mrs. Reed, that had a stand of the small diameter bamboo. We used it to make pea shooters and Bows and arrows.......  Looks like they might make som nice planters too.

I like the planter idea. Will try that next.
Hmmmmm...a raft eh? You guys are/were brave! ;D

How much do you need Unclebuck?
I have got some cut to the same lenths as the pic. (Unfinished)
The walls on some are 10/16  thick.
Can find more if you want some. E-mail me.

Well thank you for the offer but I better not right now or else I will get way off track trying to figure out how to get rich making something from bamboo. I did not know bamboo grew down there , I thought it only grew on deserted islands  ;D
