So my questions are: Do I have enough lateral 'supports' (I think probably yes, but not sure...don't want to diminish the reed fencing effect) EDIT-looking at it now, I think some smaller bamboo running laterally at the soffit and back wall might be in order How do you attach the 4 or 6 inch diameter bamboo poles to the ceiling I'm debating on how to attach the lateral smaller poles, in the middle of the bigger ones or lash them underneath. Will probably make that decision during construction, kind of like both based on the photos I've seen. [ Edited by: newB24 2011-06-10 10:16 ]
