ToolGirl Mag Ruffman is busy making a desk using bamboo plywood. In this unusual project she laminates the ply into blocks and then turns them on a lathe to make shapely legs for her new desk.

    OMG! this is just awsome. i’m currently doing a class project about bamboo. it’s just so hard to find information about it onthe net. this video really showed that bamboo can really be used like normal plywood. but my questioon is, is bamboo plywood any cheaper than normal plywood from hardwood? will the handling of bamboo plywood be the same as other plywood? different web site have diff claims. some say it is more exspensive but some say it is cheaper. so i’m not sure how. pls help. thanks
