I torch first, then stain bamboo. No sand. Look good.

Hey KAHAKA, can you post a picture of that? I've seen naked 'boo, torched 'boo and stained 'boo, but I'm not sure I've seen torched AND stained 'boo. Sounds like it got the Witco treatment. So does that mean torching it burns off its outer skin?

I'm about to begin a home project with a fair amount of bamboo that I am either going to stain myself or buy pre-stained. Weighing my options...
