I used to get mine from a stand of bamboo that I lived near, lots of choice in size there! I used a pipe cutter to cut it down (way easier). Fresh bamboo is sooooo gorgeous if you shave the green outside off. The wood is a beautiful green color with yellow stripes sometimes, but it does fade to yellow over time. So, if you can find a stand that you can harvest from, that is the best, IMO, or if you know someone that grows some in their yard, maybe they'll let you cut a bit.
