Hi Great site

Can any advice on where I get the material for a bamboo project?

Ideally I would like maybe:

10 boards @ 5 feet x 1 foot for the shelving, along with the corresponding material to hold the shelves in place under the shelves. Probably something like bamboo flooring but a little wider, and without the tongue and groove.

Also Id like to put on a bamboo face plate on the leading edge of the shelf. Something like you would frame a picture with. It looks like faux bamboo maybe 1/2 to 1 inch wide.

Thanks in advance

You might try Plyboo (http://www.plyboo.com/). They sell various types of bamboo plywood and also trim. But I have never purchase from them and do not know how expensive they are. Please post your results.
