Hi all,
I have become intrigued with Bamboo as a material to use in furniture
making. My intrigue has been sparked by the sustainable / renewable and
ecologically friendly methods used
to produce this material. I have sourced a supplier in Mulgrave ( see
web -
http://www.crikeybamboo.com.au/our-products/mosowood-plys-a-veneers)
specifically for veneers and sheet material. Commonly used for flooring
at the moment because of its durability and hardness, they have a couple
of samples of furniture in the showroom that have been made using this
product and it is very appealing. Just thought I would pass on
information that may be relevant to the new study as of next year.
Regards
Sally Johnson
