There's a place i now drive by regularly with about 2 dozen species of bamboo for sale-for landscaping primarily. I checked today and they do have some "timber" varieties that get quite large.

Anyone here with any experience in the structural application of bamboo by species?

I came home with 16' of 1.5" just for grins. Yes i have found the Wooden Boat page listing structural species and i also have 4 other pages open with similar such information at present.

I ask here specifically because not all structures are bicycles.

Thanks

no, i'm not mitering anything up real soon, but want to get a little (big) bamboo forest started for later, and don't want it to be the "wrong" stuff.
