Title: Need Bamboo slats for backing.
Post by: Prarie Bowyer on March 26, 2012, 05:39:11 pm

My normal supplier is totaly out.  Master Gardner says they won't be getting any for over a month.  Anybody know of another source for the raw slats

I get mine from Franks in California somewhere.  Always been happy.  Let google be your guide to their contact info.

Home Depot!

I found them on the web.  They can deliver 25 for $99.  It's actualy less than master gardener BUT I gotta buy 2x what I usualy buy.  I'll use it I know.
  thanks guys.  But If I can drive to Home Depot and pick them up then so much the better.

Glad I could help, I get tons of stuff for bows and arrows at home depot, it is really underestimated by many bowyers
