And, more importantly, how the heck do you cut bamboo? We don't have a power saw! And for what I've heard, a hacksaw or regular wood saw won't cut it. I've been eyeing the bamboo at Yardbirds and want to make a corner 'palm tree' with bamboo as the trunk kinda like the one in PAD. The fronds would overhang the bar in the corner, with the fishnet extending along the vaulted ceiling beyond the fronds. I'll get pictures when we're done! Well, off to work, then off to the local tiki bar, then off to myfavorite store in Sacramento-Swanbergs! If you haven't been there, you need to go! :drink: Tacky Tiki
