Bamboo Screening

It all started with some fence repairs to steel fencing between stucco fence pillars. In the process of the steel fence repairs, I ended up removing 25 years of thick honeysuckle plants growing all over 80ft of property line fencing, between our neighbors yard. I then attached the 4ft X 8ft long Lowe's bamboo fencing to the existing steel fence with galvanized fence wire. The Lowe's bamboo fencing has great privacy and will also allow the winter winds to pass through the fencing. The bamboo fenc...

Bamboo fence good, not great

3star rating because I prepared the fence for a 4' opening with .125" leeway both top and bottom. Some bamboo pieces were longer and didn't fit, so I had to cut them down (big hassle).

Now we'll have to spend money on one more. Also, after I purchased them I discovered that HOME DEPOT will deliver them for FREE when I asked the customer service representative at Lowe's if they could deliver them bc of the quantity or give me a discount he said NO. I had to borrow someone's truck to pick them up. I can't t...
