Maybe this should be in the hand tools section but I figured more people hang out here. Goes to prove that skill is more important than the tools or materials.

Beautifully done. Simple tools in skilled hands. I sent the link to my daughter. She says this person has made other videos. She watched one where she makes paper. May be worth looking for other videos by her. So well done.

She has a series of these videos on YouTube. They are wonderful to watch. Many are about cooking, but several are about making furniture and other things. In one of the first ones, she makes her own clay oven and then cooks a meal in it. She is so natural and comfortable handling her tools, she must be for real.

Beautiful movies, fun to watch.

Romanticiszing something that never happened...nobody goes into the woods harvest bamboo with a kitchen knife, you don’t use green bamboo for furniture.

Nevertheless I for one enjoyed the movies, fun to watch and very well produced!

Two different groves of bambo where I grew up. Smaller ones maybe inch an quarter diameter got 30 ft. tall

Other grove, they got 3 &1/2 inches diameter 30 ft. tall.

To have a clean cut use a saw.

All in deep south Ga.
