Bamboo at ICRBE

Ken Preston will be giving a very special presentation on bamboo rod making in February at the ICRBE. In addition, he is having build some new machinery that greatly reduce the time required to complete the formation of the strips. Could this revolutionize the art of bamboo rod making? Maybe. Come out and see it in February. No extra charge for this expanded length seminar - it's included with the price of admission.

I've been reading up on bamboo rod making for some time. Fascinating. I've been wanting to take a class. This just might be the ticket to to help me decide. Thanks Tom!

maybe he has a new twist on the current bevellers,, taper machines, mill that are capable of turning out 6 rod a day ! That would be great.

I can picture ol' Ken out in his garage grabbing the bamboo out of the rafters and getting ready for this one!
