GARDEN STRUCTURES

I incorporated several new features in

this 24 ft long fence.

I bought some 3″ Moso bamboo and split it

down the middle to get 2 half pieces.

 Instead of using the traditional black twine,

I switched to black zip ties. They won’t fade

or loosen up like the twine.

Here’s my latest fence.

I set 4×4 juniper posts into concrete. I drilled holes in the posts so the bamboo poles could pass through.

I attached pairs of 3/4″ bamboo poles to the horizontals. I bought 6″ diameter Moso bamboo and cut it into half circles and attached them to the face of the 4×4 posts.

The gate was fun to make. I used 1″ thick cedar and cut it into a yin/yang design. Can you see the shiny black “ball” hanging near the middle?

Here’s another bamboo project.

The 4×4 frame already existed- i just added the bamboo lattice.
