eyecatcher Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 There is a shop on the moat just past chang pueak gate before the temple and lights....selling water barrels of various sizes. Bamboo, is a bit further afield but one place,along the canal road past the mae hia junction and past the royal flora lights and a further few hundred metres on left is the big wood and fencing yard with bamboo of different girths. Also hang dong. So up HD road as far as the dual carriageway ends, just before the shops, the timber yard is on the right....you have to u turn at the last u turn point. Bamboo will be in 6m lengths so be aware and the two inch sections will cost you about 20/25bt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malofa Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Bamboo will be in 6m lengths so be aware and the two inch sections will cost you about 20/25bt. Do you have also an idea of the prices for thicker bamboo? four or even eight inch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pond Life Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 On the super highway, on the opposite side to what used to be Carreforre , there are 2 shops selling that sort of thing, including fish ponds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johpa Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 The shop on the moat, along Manee Norprat is Kuntiraphan, the closest thing to an army-navy surplus store in CNX. The barrels are used to transport chemicals so be careful at first as there can still be chemicals inside. They make great solar water heaters. Just fill one up in the morning and shlep it outside and by the evening you will have warm bath water. I even got warm water up in the hills during the winter where it is much cooler than in the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
