Bamboo homes, rides and tchotchkes

The "1000 Things Made of Bamboo" features galleries of — you guessed it — things made out of bamboo, under the following headers: "Music, Home, Outdoor, Fun, Art, Building, Others." The construction and transport categories are definitely my favorites. I grew up envying the Gilligan's Island castaways their amazing bamboo dwellings, furniture and gear. When I lived in a swamp in rural Costa Rica, my workmates and I made all kinds of cool stuff out of bamboo — I invented an extremely comfortable bamboo toilet seat for our latrine!
