Boo doesn't bend. If you try to steam it , the walls collapse ( think bending a thinwall metal pipe) so if you want bent boo, grow it in a form, yes it is sloww, but will work. If you want to put something around your rearview, then use wangi root bamboo. It is solid and the root of the boo. rattam bends, bamboo doesn't. good luck.
