No problem. I like your idea, seems to me like these would be more manageable than those 16 foot completed condos. I may or may not try to do some stumps but I am definately going to do some of the traditional condos and was trying to figure out the logistics of tranporting the finished condos to the lake. I doubt I would be able to get more than 2 completed ones in my boat but this way I could have several of these bases and one big bundle of bamboo and just assemble them on the spot. Seems to me the only drawback is the added cost of the pvc.

Have you put any out yet? I would also worry about the bamboo splitting when you put the screws in. Has that been an issue? Do you pre-drill a pilot hole?
