I had no idea bamboo was grown/harvested in the Americas. You guys are some hard working people that take pride in their work. Good video!
Wow, there was so much good information in this video! Thank you guys!
Thank you for posting. I will do this in my little bamboo farm in the Philippines. Gracias muchos for the English explanation...
How’s that coming along? I’m planing on doing this in somalia
It is my dream to have my own bamboo plantation. This video really give me some insight how to treat bamboo correctly 😁
real men doing real work , labor is cheap, machete is light and easy to sharpen, sometimes the 3rd world way is okay
You sound so condescending with your ‘3rd world’ labels bro. You’re a Smug westerner if u wanna pass out ID’s.
@@pienapple6969 they are a developing country, so the modern definition applies. They are not a part of any 1st world or 2nd world alliance, so the classical definition also applies. Is Columbia industrialized, have political and economic stability, and have high levels of human health? But to your point, I do not see these guys as being too far removed from lumberjacks. Although I seriously doubt that OSHA would be happy to see someone wading through boric acid in their bare feet. Borax is also banned in Europe, because there are concerns it might effect reproductive health. But when jobs are scarce, and people have little political power, then you end up with workers being compromised. Objectively Columbia is a Third World country. However Columbia, Chile, and Argentina are among the top Third World countries in South America. Often people living in metropolitan areas of America look down on people living in rural areas. I do not think that is the same objective standard we are applying here.
Sometimes?

Thank you for posting this video. I have learned a lot from it.
You guys are amazing!!
I'm planting Guadua here in Hawaii too. Thank you so much for the valuable information in this video, I'm inspired to grow and build with Guadua.
Bamboo..Gods gift for a lot of things...
Very professional...and impressive work
Wow so amazing. What a wonderful video. Bamboo is the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mabuhay (Saludos) desde las Filipinas.
Honestly, I've always been watching all your videos and whenever I watch, it's giving me a calm and relaxing vibes and a positive energy. Also, your videos help me relieve my stress. Always take care and so is your family. Thank you for always giving us these wonderful videos ❤
Excelente. Ya la gente pude ver el porque los costos por metro lineal!
Nice job explaining your process. Thanks
Thanks for the video. I thought that Borax treatment was not good for outdoor use (per one of your blog posts), yet in the video you mention these are construction grade. Can you explain?
Hello..im from indonesia...i like bambo..
This video is fantastic, and music too, what song is this?
You guys are very hard workers and you deserve a battery operated Saw
Even a hand saw would be better than that machete
Interesting video, lovely building material, THE SIZE !!!! Wow.... Would those machetes cut better if they had a little more weight in them?
I agree, they would cut better I think.
Great explanation. Beautiful landscape
Will you be expanding your product line? Say like making bamboo fabric impregnated with water activated ceramic like concrete canvas to produce a new building material? Bamboo fabric impregnated with water activated ceramic cut into strips and woven together to form panels that can be attached to a aluminium frame then soaked with water and then cures rock solid has the ceramic fabric dries? What do you think about this idea?
hard work, incredible growth rate of this plant
muy bueno !
Wonderful material. I should love to build something fantastic out of guadua bamboo.
Like maybe a launch tower for the space x Mars mission.
Incrível parabens. Grande abraço Brasil
How do you prevent the bamboo from cracking. I have seen many that break open sometime with a loud noise. Apparently thats where bamboo is called bamboo.
M. Karbaschi just keep them into a silent environment
shouldnt crack.. thereis different types of bamboo some much stronger than others
@@manchagojohnsonmanchago6367 Stronger ones crack with a louder voice
if you dry it slowly it should be fine
Incredible process.. ❤️❤️❤️greetings from bamboo craftsmen..
Best video i saw so far
Thanks for the amazing video. While bleaching/drying the bamboo under sun for 1-2 weeks as mentioned in the video, are they transferred inside for night so they don't acquire moisture at night? Also, if it rains are the bamboo provided with shade to protect it from getting wet or are they just left out as they are?
No
I wanna know which is stronger this bamboo or the biggest bamboo in Thailand?
Beautiful BAM boo.
amazing-inspiring video; you may want to buy/purchase good "bolo" coming from the Philippines for your bamboo cutting intruments... your bolo bounces when cutting the bamboo...
You can pump treatment into the poles with about 20 psi in less than an hour. I've been cutting and treating my own for a couple months, However I just found after treating and drying for a month, a few days after the first rain I'm seeing mold. That tells me the treatment is not working. I figured this would have a 5 year life outside if above ground level. It looks now like it still wont last a year.
This video might work with bamboo

Amazing
Outstanding Video. Very informative. Could you list the types of Bamboo that appeared in the video please.
That grass has lots of potential!

I think it can be good solution for capturing co2 in fast and profitable way
great job，but why not apply electric saw? which will improve your work
fuel saw is better..
Công nhận nhé, tre cây nào cây nấy, to như cây cột điện luôn
Amazing 🥰
Very nice work!
Thank you
I love bamboo. There are better ways of cutting bamboo than with a machete which is very labor-intensive compared to chainsaws and other types of hand saws which would give you a cleaner cut.
You are correct, but the cost of a chainsaw compared to a man with a machete is not worth the investment. Hand saws are useful when the poles are closer together and access to swing a machete is tight but the plantation these guys have is pretty mature and the culms are a comfortable distance apart.
@@jimhood1202 Agree
Can this specie of bamboo
Will grow in South east asia?..
Bueno bamboo

Nice video Dear thanks for sharing...😊⚘
1:25 - Get a freaking chainsaw
🤦🏼♂️
Because of course you know better than the pros themselves! Right? Allow me to educate you: a chainsaw isn't the right tool to fell bamboo because the chain will get pinched...plus you can't control the fall of a bamboo like you can when felling a tree...generally speaking a chainsaw isn't super practical when dealing with bamboos and can be very dangerous.
@Jeanette Requintin Indonesians, Vietnamese...can afford a chainsaw (there are truck load of vids on youtube of forest workers, peasants...from there using chainsaws...) so I guess most south american workers also can, or at the very least their boss can lend them chainsaws...anyway that's not the point, the issue is that a chainsaw isn't the right tool to fell bamboo because the chain will get pinched...also you can't control the fall of the bamboo...generally speaking a chainsaw isn't super practical when dealing with bamboos, and it can be very dangerous. So when we want to cut down bamboos we use handsaw (for smaller bamboos) or machete.

@@LeChristEstRoi You cut a notch in the direction of fall and cut the back just above the notch like any other tree. czcams.com/video/Zqc_imWAvEw/video.html
Woow
ป๊าด. หางบั้งไฟ
I am wondering why the gas chain saw was not used to cut the bamboo trunk ?
Great show. Thanks
Chainsaws require gas, extra maintenance, and parts that may not be available. With their tool, just a good sharpen once in a while.
Trandq2001.....Maybe not a chainsaw, but at least a saw of some kind which can also be sharpened like the machetes! Your workers could cut twice as fast with a saw! God Bless!
What species is this?
Lol guadua bamboo
Wow... That is a very good information as I have bamboo plants in my farm. Actually I just need to know the ratio of borax : torac acid : water... If you do not mind please as I need to make bamboo fence for my farm. Thanks
2kg boric acid, 3 kg Borax for 45 litres of water. That's a 10% solution
This is from INBAR's document on the treatment method
Thank You for posting ----- How many times (duration) can the "Borax" treatment be recycled for the next batch ? -- does the strength of the Borax solution weaken after multiple re-use / recycle ?
they said they add more as need! monitor PH
Wow, grandi'simas alti'simas!
Oh my back hurts already
Oh poor you. Come here, I'll give you a massage.
Ax? Hatchet?
Treated bamboo looks great. You should wear eye protection while hadling chemicals.
The best bamboo in the world for sure..?!
Mungkin sekelas betung.
Yg unik engga dalam satu rumpun
Why couldn't I have bamboo? All I have s Mesquite.
How about investing in chain saws?
how much bamboo you can kept in 40feet shipping containers
everyone luvs bamboo
Top👍👍👍👍
Where will get bombo plants for new cultivation pl
Which species is it
WOW!!!
Kocak jg golok dsna buat nebang bambunya..
Tipis banget keliatanya..kurang berat dan kurang tajam
Bamboos in the Philippines are tougher to harvest, a bush of bamboo can have up to 100 bamboos in it, twigs have thorns and build up at the trunk of the bamboos 7 feet high. Only the skilled bamboo cutter can harvest them only with a machete. Prepare to have a lot of scars if you do it on your own.
@matias: you are right because the bamboos you have experience with are clumpers with those thorns. the bamboos in the videos are runner type of a different specie easier to approach and cut down. one ting the video failed to mention is the durability and longevity of the processed bamboos in tropical areas with the unavoidable termites.

these clowns have no clue what theyr doing
walnutlogger: I agree. their form is horrible. many wasted strokes. it's almost laughable.
PLANT THE SPEICE THAT IS EASIER TO HARVEST AND GIVE THE MOST, QUALITY PRODUCT..
why are you not boiling the bamboo? it removies nature oils that effect the surface and lifespan.. also for cleanibg there is a device you can purchase that you push the banboom through a ring or steel and plastic brushes that removes the outer fuzzy surface
Hello sir. May i know what is that specie of bamboo you cut please.
Guadua Angustifolia. 0:20
Shud use a saw... dam that bamboo is tall
Invest in a few chainsaws, ( with protective gear) then you'll get maximum yield at quicker rate & also able to pay higher wages for the workers.
We have bamboo in our yard and we used a chainsaw to clear the bamboo years ago. We didn't know it at the time but bamboo contains silica and eats up a chain on a chainsaw in just a few cuts. We were so surprised and disappointed. Now we cut the bamboo with carbide tipped reciprocating saw. Bamboo is one tough customer.
That's insane....
Letting machines do the work...
This ain't the future fool!
สวัสดี ครับ 😍😍😍
Hi....how much per 40' container?
what about a chainsaw?
I enjoy the ring of the machete
In Malaysia, Bamboo grow in a bunches
Stump covers bamboo fabric treated with a natural adhesive to cover the stumps like a band aid!
That's a musical machete!
By the sound of the machete, that bamboo is strong af.
In my state Manipur there are 52 species of bamboo.
Wow! I didn't know that bamboo could grow this big
What specie of bamboo is this?
..dude in white shirt is doing all the heavy work....
1;30 Sir your machete is tho soft not hard enough. So you need more extra swing power to cut down that bamboo.
Mantap
Please mention how to get sapling in India
Those machetes lack weight and thickness to cut those bamboos
What variety bamboo is this?
It's in the title of their company- Guadua. It's native to S. America. It is a semi clumper- most have huge thorns at the nodes.
The mechette used in this video ia not for bamboo... Try a heavier and harder machette...
I like the sound of machete its obious a hard steel suitable to cut such a hard bamboo..
Quiero esa variedad aca en peru
Big company no cutting machine?
Gebey lajengan oke jiah
Very useful video...any way what this bamboo type name?? Looks very strong
Guadua? Title of video? Look it up?
I want guadua plants plz contact 8003001163
1:57 wrong tool for the job, poor guy
I want bamboo here in Egypt
Hi this bamboo name and plant
fantastic!
How can l order for seedlings?
1:28 Jeeze, buy the guy a chainsaw.
You know, a chainsaw would save 8 inches of bamboo and would save the ultimate destruction of these guys elbows. My stupid bestfriend failed to buy a sander and purchased doors for his new house and sanded them all by hand. He has had two elbow surgeries on each arm, they are ruined over a $70.00 sander he didnt want to buy and he never asked to borrow either. So yes. Holtzfarma chinese company makes very good copies of stihl and husquevarna. At a third of the cost.
