Saws for cutting bamboo

Bamboo is a fairly recent arrival in this country, as a constructional material at any rate, but bamboo flooring is now readily available and other uses will soon follow. The saws on this page are designed to cut bamboo without splintering it so would be suitable for anyone working extensively with bamboo.

Click here for a page containing links to a variety of demonstration videos, manuals and data sheets to help you find the right tool for your project. If the saw you are interested in is out of stock, why not bookmark this page so that you can come back in a couple of weeks to check again. Alternatively please feel free to e-mail me for further details or to reserve a saw from my next consignment.

All prices include 17.5% VAT for UK customers. A contribution towards my postage and packing costs is added at checkout according to the following scale:

Orders up to £35.00 incur a £2.20 charge for postage.
Orders between £35.01 and £70.00 pay £4.40 towards postage.
