Yeah, but that's not really what Cranky's getting cranked up about. Cranky took an outing today to go to a friends bamboo orchard and he harvested some mighty good bamboo for the next project.

We are talking about 5 acres worth of bamboo. But, geez, it's tough to harvest just the right scale. I only got a bunch and it took quite a bit of work.

Nah, it's not hard with prunning shears, but then you have to remove all the little leaves, etc . . . I will take some pics of the process once I get going. |
