No idea on price of bamboo but my thought is a plantation of it would dramatically outgrow pine. You could harvest numerous times per year. And seeing how pine costs have sores I wonder if there’s an edge there.
Unfortunately I don’t have the skills to pursue this.
- naremu 3y agoOh it most definitely grows faster, it's more a production question/investigation. I can say as someone who has a hobby woodworking in NA though, even factory made bamboo items can be reasonably pricey for the amount of material used. I'm sure most of the costs are shipping but, I struggle to imagine the traditional 4x8' sheets of plywood being made of bamboo ending up being cost efficient without some serious production innovations (not that it wouldn't interest me endlessly).
