Richard and his lovely wife in Sharri's beautiful studio.
Richard softening and warming the bamboo sheath with warm water, a terry cloth towel and his breath.
Softening & flattening the fibers with a smooth river rock. 
Beginning to wrap the bamboo sheath onto the baren. 
Paul de Jode and Viza Arlington take a turn (with Richard's help). 
Viza is doing a good job with that rock! 
Paul gets help with the wrapping, folding and holding. 
Viza gets hers wrapped tightly. Good job!
