Understandable that my comment seemed to point only to bamboo, but I really meant I don't believe most/any of the current builders in America are capable of creating anything that requires this level of unique mastery, bamboo or not. And if they are, there's certainly no evidence of it. All we have is blocky 5-over -1s.

Have you never seen a barn raising by the Amish?[0] Have you never seen an episode of The Woodwright's Shop[1]? There are plenty of woodcraft workers that do not use electricity to build their wood projects. If you put aside the requirement that electricity is not allowed, then there are even more skilled wood craftsmen. Try The New Yankee Workshop[2]

I'm hoping with a little bit of curiosity on your part, you might be able to eliminate some of your ignorance on this topic.

I think this comment says more about your (lack of) familiarity with America than America.

In other words, you know very little, if not, nothing, about construction. Is that correct?
