I’ve been racking my brain on how to cover this 5’ section of my tiki bar and I think this is it. I started by looking through Bamboo Ben’s instagram feed. I’m thinking 2” bamboo A-frame. One of BB’s photos of thatched roof under construction had a home depot bucket, and I used that to determine around 18” spacing on the bamboo frame. 100 board feet of 2” bamboo is $150 from Forever Bamboo. Plus freight to wherever you are. I already have thatching but you can get it there too. Started sketching.
