    Working with Bamboo ply

    Well, finding retailers with stock isn't easy. https://www.hm-wood-shop.co.uk/ Have stock but It isn't cheap. https://www.ukbamboo.com/product-category/bamboo-boards/ Is more reasonable on price but have very limited stock.

    Very simple table and benches with anti dog chewy steel banding.

    Bought a pallet of off cuts.

    Maybe but if I was to buy each species at a minimum of 1cuf surely that would run many many hundreds more?
