All books about: “Split Bamboo Pose…. The Best Sex Positions Split Bamboo

A huge collection of TOP 100 poses from the Kama Sutra with visual and text descriptions, which I advise you to take note of;) Be sure to look further :)

1. V pose

The position requires acrobatic abilities!

The woman sits on the edge of the table, the man stands opposite her and slightly bends his legs to be in a position most convenient for penetration.

Then the woman wraps her arms around the man’s neck and throws her legs over his shoulders. Then she leans back, and you are left to move in the usual pattern, holding her butt.

2. Cowgirl position

In the cowgirl position, a man sits cross-legged and leans back, resting his hands on the bed behind his back. The woman sits on top of him, hugs him with her hips and moves up and down. This way she can control the speed and depth of penetration.

It might be more comfortable to lean against the wall or headboard and help her move up and down—or just relax while she does all that hard work.

3. Fireworks

The fireworks pose is more difficult than it looks.

To begin, the man and woman sit opposite each other. She wraps her legs around his torso, then penetration occurs, and only then the man hugs the woman with his leg, which is on top to hold her.

To avoid falling, the woman hugs the man with both arms, and the man leans on his elbow. Damn it, this is a whole quest!

4. Shiny triangle

At first glance, the shiny triangle position resembles the classic missionary position: the woman lies on her back and the man on top. However, the point is that the man leans on his knees, and the woman raises her hips to meet him.

That is, the man does not move, the woman does all the work herself. So it's not like the missionary position at all!

5. Letter X

The man lies on his back, the woman turns and sits on top of him with her back to him, and then lies down on top of him.

She stretches her legs and places them on his shoulders and her body on the bed, between the man's legs. So it looks like the letter X. Then the woman begins to slide up and down.

She can also use a man's legs as a lever to increase the amplitude.

6. Nirvana

This is a classic. The woman lies on her back, stretches her legs and holds onto the bed above her head. After penetration, she brings her legs together, and the man, on the contrary, spreads them apart.

They move together, and because the woman squeezes her thighs, natural stimulation of the clitoris occurs.

7. Castle

A woman sits on something (table, washing machine- well, you understand), on the very edge, and leans on his hands. The man stands in front of her and she wraps her legs around his hips. That's the whole castle.

8. Sliding

The man lies on his back, the woman on top of him, legs together. The idea is that the woman slides up and down his body.

And it’s not difficult at all!

9. Monkey

We have no idea why it's called that! Here you don’t have to be a monkey, but a real gymnast.

The man lies on his back with his knees pulled up to his chin. The woman sits on top of him with her back to him, leans on her legs and moves up and down. The more weight she puts on her legs, the easier it will be for you. Although keep in mind: in principle, this position is not easy!

But you can penetrate wow deeply. But there is one thing: a woman must be strong enough and have an extraordinary sense of balance. If she holds your wrists like in the picture, it will be a little easier.

10. Butterfly

Another position with an inappropriate title. Key moment— penetration angle. The woman lies on her back somewhere on suitable furniture. The man stands in front of her and she places her legs on his shoulders.

The woman rests her hands on the same furniture so that it is comfortable for her to raise her hips, and he takes her by the butt to simplify the process. And if you are strong and dexterous enough, you will also be able to move despite all this disgrace.

11. Ascent to Desire

This is if your Virgo is a fan of healthy eating (or you are such a strong man). Then you will cope with the task. Otherwise, I don't know.

So, the man stands up, spreads his hips, bends his knees a little. The woman stands in front of him. The man lifts the woman in front of him and she wraps her legs around him.

You can take a suitable sitting position, and then stand up with a friend in your arms - as you like. And standing leaning on the bed is somehow safer. Your girlfriend's weight should ensure deep penetration as she moves up and down.

12. Balancing

The man lies on his back and spreads his legs. The woman sits on top between his thighs, and he, in turn, takes her by the thighs.

That's why balancing! It's the same, dude!

In this position, the man sets the rhythm. But a woman can adjust the depth.

13. Split Bamboo

A woman puts her foot on a man's shoulder. The man holds her by the thigh and heroically performs penetration, simultaneously supporting her raised leg and himself. Since her hands are not occupied with anything, she can do whatever she wants with them.

14. Sleeping angel

The woman lies on her side and curls up, and the man lies behind her in the same position. Everything here is quite simple, and the man has free hands, so he can use some other caresses.

15. Bridge

Mmm, wow! Not that any of us have tried this position: we are not Olympic champions in any sport. But it just looks ugly.

You can only try this position if you are very flexible and super strong. So, you stand on the bridge... Here half of the readers scroll further. So, you stand on the bridge, and your friend sits on top - and then everything is clear. Let her put her weight on her legs, tell her that.

You can’t stay in this position for long! Otherwise, the blood will rush to your head, and fainting is just around the corner.

16. Paperclip

The man lies on his back, legs together. The woman sits on top, leans back and leans on her hands. Here you can also use your hands as you want (although whatever you want, you can only reach the clitoris - unless, of course, you are a Boomer).

17. Tight

Variation of the "sleeping angel". However, here the matter is more complicated.

So again, lie on your side with you behind her, but this time she spreads her legs. There is also room for the use of hands - and for both participants in the process at once.

18. Two-story

The man lies on his back, and the woman lies on top with her back to him. She leans back on her elbows, pressing her back against his chest.

The woman rests her legs on the man's knees, and the man moves inside her. The pose is good for transitioning into another pose - it will come out quite naturally.

19. Temptation

So, the woman sits on her knees and leans back, stretching her arms above her head. The man kneels down, penetrates the woman and stretches out his legs. Difficult manipulations.

20. Crouching Tiger

The man lies on his back so that his feet are not on the bed, but on the floor. The woman sits on the man with her back to him, legs spread. She can choose the depth and speed, and also have fun with her hands. Such a sneaking tiger.

21. Hero

The woman lies on her back with her knees pulled up to her chin and her legs pointing at the ceiling. The man kneels down opposite her. He supports her legs with his hands. Why "hero"?

22. Dolphin

Another position for yoga lovers. So, the woman raises her pelvis to the ceiling and supports herself on her shoulders, and her head lies on the bed. The man is between her knees and supports her butt. Movements must be very careful! You can even lift her hips even higher so that her legs are lifted off the support. Just don't take too long, dude! Again: the blood rushes to the head, and the friend may faint.

23. Frog

The man sits on the edge of the bed, resting his feet on the floor. The woman sits on top of him on the edge of the bed with her back to him, her legs remaining on the bed. Looks like a frog, doesn't it? She moves up and down, and he supports her just in case. You can help her.

24. Juniper

The woman lies on her back with her legs spread and stretched out. The man sits between her knees, also stretching out his legs. He lifts her hips and it's done. Well, that’s quite romantic.

25. Plow

The woman stands with her feet on the floor and leans her elbows on the bed. The man comes up from behind, stands between her legs, and she stretches her legs parallel to the floor.

26. Hook

It just seems confusing, but in reality it’s not all that complicated! So, the man lies down on his side. The woman curls up in front of him so that her legs are not far from his head. She pulls her knees to her chest and wraps her arms around his legs. And she wraps her arms around his legs, leaning on his elbow.

27. Classic

The woman lies on her back with her legs slightly spread. The man lies on top of her, supporting himself with his hands. Nothing surprising.

28. On my knees

A man and a woman kneel opposite each other. She spreads her thighs and wraps her arms around the man's neck. He hugs her too and gently moves his knees. You can be nice, kiss and hug.

29. Cross

The woman lies on her back, with one leg extended and the other bent at the knee. The man sits in front of her, placing one leg behind her outstretched leg and holding her bent leg with his hand. A very confusing description. And so it’s quite convenient.

30. Chaise longue

The man sits down, leaning on his hands behind him and stretching out his legs. Your arms can be slightly bent at the elbows. The woman lies on top of him, throwing her legs over his shoulders, and moves her hips. Oh-oh-very deep penetration!

31. Lying lotus

Bring a little yoga into your sex life. The woman lies on her back with her legs crossed in the lotus position. The man positions himself between her legs and penetrates from above. It may happen that you will be too heavy for your friend, so let her hug you. You can put a pillow under her hips to change the angle.

32. Lustful foot

Once again, you'll need to be Olympic-flexible. The idea is that the partners stand opposite each other, and the woman throws one leg over the man's shoulder. For your friend’s convenience, you can first sit down a little. It is dangerous if she does not do gymnastics and has poor stretching! And then the woman holds her hands on your neck, and you hold her butt. In short, a pose for heroes.

33. Balance and squats

Here you will need strength and training - or rather, your friend. The woman stands on the edge of the bed, and the man stands on the floor behind her. Then she crouches down and he helps her aim. She grabs his hands to keep her balance. Well, almost tightrope walkers: balance, balance!

34. Magic Mountain

First things first, you need to build a mountain of pillows. Then the woman kneels next to her and leans her chest on them. The man kneels behind her. This pose requires big pillows!

35. Bandolier

The woman lies on her back, pulling her knees to her chest. The man kneels in front of her and she places her feet on his chest. He rests his forearms on her legs and he's done. If you press your legs harder against her chest, the pleasure should increase. In addition, the G-spot is stimulated in this position.

36. Propeller

This is unusual! The woman lies on her back with her legs extended and joined. The man lies on top of her with his head at her feet. This, of course, will require practice; we are not sure of success.

37. Rock and roller

As you understand, this is not the original name of the pose. But it sounds damn cool! The woman lies on her back and stretches her legs so that they are above her head (as if she is going to do a back somersault). The man kneels in front of her.

38. Fan

The woman stands with her back to her partner and leans her elbows on something: for example, on a chair. A man comes up from behind. What's good about the pose? Your hands are free, and the position allows for deep penetration and is also suitable for anal sex.

39. Boat

First, the man lies on his back and the woman sits on him. Then the man sits down, pulls his knees towards him, the woman does the same - and they sit face to face. Your legs will be pressed against her body, her legs will be right behind your legs. You can hold on to each other's legs and your own so as not to fall. This is such an interesting thing.

40. Eagle

The man sits on his knees in front of his partner, legs spread. She lies on her back with her legs spread wide. He holds her by the legs and then does everything at his own discretion.

41. Hanging scissors

Only for athletes! This is where the real hardcore is!

This position requires more energy, and also requires arm strength from your friend. She lies at the edge of the bed on her side, with only her calves, ankles and legs on the mattress. She supports herself with her left hand and he holds her waist. He steps over her left leg and, holding her other leg up, enters her as she literally hangs off the bed! It doesn't sound very clever, but in principle it works. She must like it!

42. Star

The woman lies on her back, with one leg bent at the knee and the other extended. The man sits between her legs, stepping over the one that is extended forward. Then he leans back, leaning on his hands.

43. Doggy style

An absolute classic, in any friend's repertoire. She gets down on all fours and he kneels behind her, supporting her by the hips. Not on the carpet, dude!

44. Arc de Triomphe

The man lies on his back, the woman sits on top of him. Then he lifts his upper body and leans forward - and she leans back until her back is on his legs.

45. Reverse cowgirl

Yiiihaaa! Ride me, cowgirl! This is perhaps one of the coolest positions on the entire list. The man lies on his back, and the woman sits on top with her back to him. She can rest her hands on his thighs - this will make it easier for her to move.

46. Super 8

She lie on her back with her legs spread - you can put a pillow under her lower back. He lies on top, supporting himself with outstretched arms. She places her hands on his hips or back and rises to meet his movements.

47. Amazon

The man sits comfortably on a chair, the woman sits on top of him, facing him. Her feet should rest on the floor - this will allow her to move up and down.

48. Dog

Variation of the doggy style pose. She's still on all fours, but she lowers herself onto her forearms and he penetrates her from behind. What else is fun - you can caress her breasts.

49. Crisscross

She lies on her back and crosses her legs, her butt is somewhere on the edge of the bed. You stand in front of her, take her legs with your hands - and you can separate them and cross them again if you want.

50. Ship

The man lies on his back, the woman sits sideways on him, legs spread - from the back she looks like a boat floating on water - hence the name of the position. She controls every movement!

51. Landslide

By the way, a real challenge for any dude. How are things? The girl lies on her stomach, leaning on her forearms and stretching her legs - they should be slightly spread apart. He sits directly behind her legs and holds on to her torso, and then leans back at a 45-degree angle - this makes it easier to get inside. Well, the next thing you know: you move back and forth, and your partner can squeeze her legs for a change.

52. Snail

This is something worth doing! First, the woman lies on her back, then pulls her knees to her chest and throws her legs over her partner’s head.

He kneels in front of her and enters her, putting his weight on his hands, which he uses to rest either on the bed or on the shoulders of his lady. This position is great for deep penetration, so we recommend stocking up on lubricant so as not to hurt the lady. But in fact, the position is extremely favorable for a woman.

53. Sliding

The man sits on his knees and leans back, transferring his weight to his hands, which he leans on behind his back. The woman lies down on her back and puts her head on the pillow. She wraps her knees around his hips to create the most favorable angle for penetration. She has her hands free, so she can have fun with her breasts and clitoris, while the man watches the movement. This is a very erotic position, again suitable for deep penetration. What’s also good about her is that she gives you an excellent overview: you can watch her reaction, and this is entertaining.

54. Loop

Good position: you can penetrate deeply and still maintain complete control over the situation. To do this, you kneel down, lean back and support yourself with one hand. The woman also kneels and also leans on her elbows - as in the doggy style position. A woman moves in this pose. And at this time you can use your free hand at your own discretion.

55. G-stimulation

The woman lies on her back and pulls her legs to her chest. The man kneels in front of her and holds her feet. He moves his hips and can control every movement. And also on his conscience - balance. If you want to improve the position, you can make sure that the woman's legs are on your chest, while you hold her hips - this way you can penetrate even deeper.

56. Death grip

This position may be more comfortable if the woman places a pillow under her butt to make it easier for her to raise her hips. The woman moves her pelvis - in different directions. A great position for afternoon fun in bed.

57. Challenge accepted

What challenge? And now you will understand. To try this pose, you will need a stable chair, remarkable flexibility and strength.

The woman stands on a chair and squats. Penetration - and then you know what to do. It's not easy, I tell you, man!

58. Fold

A woman lies on a pillow on the floor or a very hard mattress. The man positions himself between her thighs and enters her, pulling her towards him; He stretches his legs so that they are near her head. He moves his hips and can simultaneously kiss her chest or stomach - whatever he can reach. And the woman relaxes and enjoys herself.

59. Sitting on a perch

The man sits on a chair, and the woman sits on his lap, turning her back to her partner. She places her feet on the floor and moves up and down. The woman's hands are free, so she can use them to stimulate her clitoris and breasts. To facilitate penetration, she may lean back.

60. Candle

This position allows for deep penetration, but for a woman, holding her legs up can be very difficult.

A woman lies on her back with her head on a pillow, raises her pelvis and, for comfort, can place a smaller pillow under it or lean on the edge of the bed. She tilts her pelvis back and pulls her knees toward her chest so her partner can kneel in front of her. His hands are free, and he can caress her thighs, where there are a lot of erogenous zones.

61. Gag

The man lies on his back with his legs extended and spread apart. The woman lies on top and penetration takes place. After this, the woman stretches her legs and begins to move back and forth at any speed. This is a great position if you like the most full body contact - you can kiss and hug. Also good for women who find deep penetration painful.

62. Proposal

To succeed in this position, you need to practice! But she's worth it.

The partners kneel facing each other, he leans on his right knee (as if he is proposing) - and the woman repeats this position - this way the partners can be as close to each other as possible. To enter a woman, you need to lean forward a little, there's a little fuss waiting for you, but we believe in you, dude!

63. Tachanka

This is not an easy task, but no one said it would be easy! As they say, if you love to ride, you also love to carry a sled: if you want new sensations, try.

So, to implement this crazy idea, the woman gets on all fours, resting her forearms on pillows. The man kneels from behind and in this position enters her (you can stand on one knee), and then rises to his feet. Hold her legs, watch her balance!

64. Lotus Bud

Here you will need flexibility - especially for you.

You sit in the lotus position, your arm sits on top and wraps its legs around your waist. You help her move by holding her hips with your hands, and you can also try moving up and down yourself.

65. Mermaid

The woman lies down on a table or something suitable in height and moves towards its edge. You can put a pillow under her bottom to make it more comfortable for both of you and to be as close to each other as possible. She can put her hands under the pillow to make it more convenient to raise her pelvis even higher, hold on to the table, or not occupy them with anything. The man enters her standing. If you decide to sit on the bed, you can kneel. Hold her legs for balance - this will give you extra stability and the ability to penetrate deeper.

66. Hidden Tiger

The man sits on the bed with his legs stretched out horizontally. The woman lies on top of him so that her legs are turned in the opposite direction, and she lies on her stomach. The woman stretches her legs back and relaxes her torso, located between her partner’s legs, and then begins to slide up and down and also uses her legs for this.

67. Kayak

The man sits, leaning on his right arm and stretching out his legs. The woman sits on top of him with her back to him and leans forward, getting on all fours. She controls the movements, and he has one hand free, with which he can please his partner in some other way.

68. Clasp

The man stands up, the woman wraps her legs around his waist, and he supports her by the butt or back. To make the structure more reliable and the penetration deeper, she can lean her back against the wall.

This position can be applied anywhere, at any time. Its only drawback is that it requires a certain amount of strength from the man to hold his partner.

69. Ball

Only try if you are flexible enough!

The man sits on the bed, the woman sits on top and pulls her legs towards her. She moves in this position, and the man kisses her back. This position requires skill, but it has a significant advantage: thanks to it, a man remembers those parts of a woman’s body that he usually does not pay attention to.

70. Cart on her knees

It's a little simpler than previous version"Carts".

The woman gets on all fours (more precisely, on her elbows and one knee) and leans on her forearms, and her partner kneels behind her. He holds her hips and she stretches her other leg back. This position will be tiring for your friend, so this is just for variety.

71. Samba sideways

The woman lies on her side on the bed or floor and stretches her legs at a 90-degree angle in front of her. This creates the shape of the letter L.

The man lies on top, leaning on his outstretched arms placed on both sides of her body. You need to move slowly and carefully.

72. Sphinx

The woman lies on her stomach, placing her weight on her forearms and placing one leg to the side and the other stretched back. The man lies on top and enters her from behind, again leaning on his hands. What’s good is the pressure of the man’s body on the woman’s pelvis, this will provide her with pleasure, and rhythmic movements will complete the job.

73. Column

Both partners stand, the woman has her back to her partner, and he holds her with his hands for balance. The man enters his partner from behind, and she leans forward slightly. She can also lean on a wall or table to achieve deeper penetration and generally make the task easier.

74. Guest

As the name implies, this pose is for any occasion - for any place and time: you never know.

Partners stand facing each other. A small detail: it will be easier if the woman wears heels or is simply the same height as her partner. And if not, you can stand on a step or on your tiptoes - oops!

75. Easy Rider

Another version of the “cowgirl”. The man lies on his back, the woman sits on top of him, facing him, as in “reverse cowgirl,” but leans forward and leans on her hands. He holds her waist and she slides up and down. In principle, she may not lean on her hands, but do something else with them.

76. Supernova

It all starts with the usual “woman on top” position on a made bed—no need to go under the covers, trust me. And anyway, who has sex under the covers? But the man lies down so that his head lies on the edge of the bed.

The woman sits on top, resting her soles on the bed, leans back and transfers her weight to her outstretched arms. So she rides her partner until she gets run over. And then she can rest her hands on his torso and sit on his knees - a transformation! And at the same time she moves him so that his head and hands are on the floor. In short, it requires technique.

77. Spider

The man sits down with his legs stretched out in front of him and leans on his arms extended behind his back. His partner sits on top and moves her hips, also leaning on her hands.

78. Stairs

The name seems to tell you: you will need a ladder. The woman will stand on all fours (hands one step above the knees, and feet one step lower). The man holds her by the waist from behind and rests his knees on the same step on which his partner stands with her feet, and his feet are on another step lower. Suitable for anal sex too! But where will you find a ladder on which it will be convenient to practice?..

79. Basket

A man sits on the floor or on a hard mattress, stretching his legs in front of him and bending one of them slightly at the knee. The woman sits on top and he holds her hips. She can control the depth and intensity of her movements, and is also an ideal position for kissing and hugging.

80. Y on the side

The name speaks for itself - this is exactly the figure your body forms as a result. How to achieve it? To begin with, the woman lies down on the bed face down so that her pelvis is exactly on the edge of this very bed. The woman’s head will thus be closer to the floor, and she will also rest her forearms on it. The man lies on top and rests his hands on her pelvis. Well, does it look like a game on its side?

81. Zen

This is such a peaceful pause in the middle of your bed madness. You can take a break from any weird positions in this cute position, so try it at your leisure.

The partners lie on their sides facing each other (if possible, move to this position without interrupting penetration), the woman throws her leg behind the man's back and presses against him. Sometimes it's even cooler than any incredible jumps on each other.

82. Whisper

The woman lies on her side, legs crossed, and the man lies on his side in front of her. She wraps her legs around him and clasps the back of his ankles. He moves back and forth and, if desired, can whisper something in his partner’s ear.

83. Side saddle

The man lies on his back, legs stretched out and slightly spread and his head resting on the pillow. The woman sits on top of him so that her legs are on one side of his body. She also leans on her hands and moves like this.

84. Folding bed

The woman lies on her back, placing a pillow under her head and raising her legs up so that they are above her shoulders - as straight as possible! The man kneels and holds her legs, leaning forward with one hand on the bed.

85. Correct angle

The woman lies on her back on the table, placing a pillow under her head and moving towards the edge of the table. The man stands on the floor in front of her and she wraps her legs around him. With his hands he can stimulate her erogenous zones. This position gives a very favorable penetration angle.

86. Indrani

The pose is named after one of the Hindu goddesses. In this position, the woman lies on her back with a pillow under her head and her legs pulled up to her chest. The man kneels in front of her, she holds his hips and wraps her legs around his chest.

87. Shoulderstand

First, you need the woman to lie face up on a hard surface. She leans on her hands and lifts her legs and buttocks off the floor until she stands in a sort of “birch tree.” The man kneels in front of her and supports her buttocks; she throws her legs over his shoulders. Now she leans on her elbows and holds his hips. Not an easy task!

88. Laptop

High tech title! The man sits down on a chair, as if he was about to sit comfortably with his laptop. The woman sits on top of him, facing him and throws her legs over his shoulders, hugging his neck. Anyone can move.

89. Pickup master

The man lies on his back, bending his knees and spreading them slightly. The woman sits on top of him with her back to him and leans on his knees. She controls the movements.

90. Behind

It will be easier if the woman leans against the wall. And it’s not at all difficult: the partners stand, the woman’s back is to the man. She leans forward a little and he enters her from behind. Voila!

91. Toad

The woman lies on her back with her legs spread, her partner lies on top of her, and she rests her legs on his buttocks. Does it look like a toad? You can hug as much as you want - it’s very romantic, despite such a controversial name.

92. Buddy

The woman lies on her side and the man sits behind her. He slides his knee deeper between her legs and enters her. She moves the leg that, by the will of fate, was on top, and bends it a little to maintain balance and make the task easier for the man.

93. Crisscross

The woman lies on her side, arms above her head. The man also lies on his side, perpendicular to his partner. She lifts her top leg so he can position himself between her thighs. He holds her by the shoulders to make it easier to move.

94. Waterfall

A man sits on a chair, a woman sits on him and wraps her legs around him. She then leans back (caution: balance required!) and the man holds her by the shoulders to prevent an accident. You need to be very flexible!

95. Indian handstand

The woman rests her hands on the floor, the man comes up from behind and lifts her legs, holding his partner by the waist. She clasps her legs behind his back. To succeed in this pose, you will need to be flexible and strong. And you can’t practice it for a long time: it’s hard for a girl.

96. Accordion

The woman lies on her back with a pillow under her head and her legs pressed to her chest. The man kneels in front of her and she places her feet on his chest. He holds the woman by the knees. The penetration is very deep.

97. Wednesday evening after dinner

This lazy pose is ideal for relaxed entertainment.

The man lies on his side, resting his head on his arm bent at the elbow. The woman lies on her back perpendicular to him and rests her feet on the floor behind his back. You can look into each other's eyes! A very favorable angle for a woman.

98. Wide Open

The Drying Cabinet

Bamboo rod making begins with a controlled
atmosphere,the first piece of equipment required to
build a quality rod is the drying cabinet. Not only will
it protect your finished rods from accidental breakage
it will be a dry comfortable place for the rod
components to live while you construct the rod. If the
"unfinished" rod components were allowed to just sit
around anywhere they would absorb moisture from the
air and be subject to a dimensional changes. Bamboo
will expand and contract by as much as 3% to 5%
when in an unprotected environment. If the rod were
not protected from potential dimensional changes
during fabrication, you might end up with a rod that
Could become crooked or one with erratic physical
characteristics

This rod cabinet maintains an average 90* temperature
and about 22% relative humidity. I like to store my
rods in the cabinet during all phases of construction or
reconstruction, even after they are finished.

Halving The Culm

Shown here is the cane being measured, halved and
divided into segments. I try to keep the segments
between 1/4" and 5/16" wide, marking the culm is
easily accomplished with a flexible rule made from a
xerox copy of an architects rule

Bamboo Rod Making

Splitting Into Strips
The culm is spilt in half and again into halves again and
so on until you get down to the last two strips. I like
to split by hand instead of using a knife, for me it is
much simpler to do. You start with a sharp knife
blade and a mallet, make sure that the knife is
perpendicular to the round edge of the cane, give it a
good tap until the knife penetrates the cane, twist the
knife blade in a circular direction as opposed to prying
to left or right, stop when the split in the cane
advances down several inches. Now use your hands and
grip as closely as you can to the sides of the strip,
pull the pieces apart. With practice, you can steer the
split down the length of the cumm by applying more
pressure to the side in which you want the split to go.

Removing the Pith at the Node

The pith is removed at the apex of the cane node with
the band saw, I like to make a concave cut which will
facilitate straightening and flattening the nodes later
on. You will need to have six strips cut for each planned
rod section.

Staggering the Cane Nodes

Now that you have six split strips cut, lay them out in one of the patterns described below. A good
painters masking tape will help considerably as the strips will be anything but straight at this time. This is a
45" section, it was marked for a cut at the left end of the rule and at 49" to the right. The nodes are
the weakest point in the cane, as a result they should be separated or arranged in a manner that maximizes
the distance between them. Typically, the strips are arranged in one of three ways, spiral (as shown
above), a 2x2x2 pattern and 3x3x3 pattern. In the spiral method, the strips are laid out so that no two
nodes will be adjacent to each other, while at the same time keeping the maximum distance possible
between them. This distance between nodes will generally be between 1 2/3" and to a little over 2".

For the 2x2x2 method, the strips are arranged so that each strip is separated by two strips without nodes,
this results in having a node on the opposite side of that node.

For the 3x3 method, the strips are arranged so that there is a clean strip between each node

Rod makers all differ in there preference as to what is "the best method", the debate still continues.
What is important about all three methods is the node spacing at the tip, since this is the weakest point in
the rod it is desirable to have the greatest spacing possible, 5" minimum, between to tip and the first node.

Dressing the Nodes

Take a look above at any of the above layouts
and look at the height of the nodes, it is easy
to see why they need to be removed. I first
file away the majority of the bump and finish
with 220 grit paper. On most nodes there will
be a crown at the center of the node, we will
heat treat and press it to a level surface in the
next step.

Heating and Straightening Nodes

Bamboo becomes flexible when exposed to a high
heat source Traditionally the can't have
been heated with an alcohol lamp, I feel that this
damages the internal structure of the bamboo and
will leave a darker finish on the rod than you might
want. Today most modern rod makers use heat
guns to heat up the cane. I use a 2-speed heat
gun set on the high heat setting, my gun came with
an optional accessory pack which included the "duck"
bill" heat diffuser seen above. This accessory
concentrates the heat right were you need it. The
cane is held a bit above the diffuser and rotated
between your fingers, after about 30-45 seconds
the can becomes flexible. Now quickly place the
cane in a vice and clamp down on the strip until it
straightens, you will want to leave it there for
about one minute. You will want a smooth surface
on your vices jaws. I replaced the jaws with a
couple of pieces of fiberglass. Often it requires
several trips to the heat gun to get the strip
straight since you will have to straighten the strip
in several different directions.

Rough Planing in Power Beveler

Now that you have straightened out the strips it is
time to put rough 60* bevel on each strip. Having
an equal rough 60* bevel on the strips will help
later on and it is a great time saver. I used to do
this by hand but now use a Medved power beveler.
Each strip is run through this machine several times
rotating from side to side until it becomes
triangular. With the aid of an adjustable depth
stop at the end of the beveler, it is possible to mill
all of the strips to the same size .

Binding Strips Together

Now that you have straightened out the strips and put
rough 60* bevel on each of them, its time to bind
them together. There are several methods available to
bind the strips together, I like the "Garrison Style"
binder This one has a modification that I think
improved its performance. I use an old fishing reel and
it"s finely adjustable drag to supply the proper tension
to the binder. I still use the traditional spring
tensioners when I load the spool with the glace
cotton binding thread. Using a fishing reel drag easily
allows me to accurately set the tension to where I want
it, for each rod section, with the confidence that it
will not change. I also use different weights, 24 oz
for mid sections and butt sections and 16-20 oz for
the tips.

Heat Tempering

The straightened rod segments are carefully placed in a
convection oven where the will cook at 180* for three hours.
After 3 hours, remove the rod segments and bring the
temperature up to 360*. When it has heated up, place the rod
segments back in the oven and leave them for 10-17 minutes.
The high heat will temper the bamboo, thereby making it
stronger. The heat will also darken the cane a bit, the color
can range between wheat and light caramel. Remove the strips
from the oven and leave them bound and exposed to the
normal environment for at least one week before removing the
string. Leaving them bound this way allows moister to reenter
the bamboo cellular structure and I think keeps them a bit
straighter

Bound bundles are placed in a 60* groove and flattened out with a pizza roller, I also try to eliminate any
twisting in the rod blank.

Straighting Bound Rod Segments

The enamel layer of the cane is removed from each strip with a hand held scraper and finished with 400
grit automotive paper. To make the paper last longer, I lubricate it with mineral spirits

Basic Tools

Some of the tools required from the left to the right are; dial indicator with a 60* contact point,
micrometer, cork pad to protect plane irons, scraping plane, Stanley low angle block plane, Starrett screw
gauge, Stanley standard angle block plane with adjustable mouth and Lie-Nielson Rod Makers standard
angle adjustable mouth block plane.

Setting the Plane Form

The plane form is set to the depth required at 5 inch intervals along the 6 foot length of the form, then
checked and reset at each station from end to end until there is no variation from the required settings.
After setting and adjusting the forms it is time to plane a strip and check the accuracy of the milled
strip. Often it requires several minor adjustments to get the form just right. When I mill a strip, I start
with the end several inches further down the slope of the taper (where the dimensions will be larger!) then
plane the strip and check the strip for the proper dimensions. If the strip is over or under the desired
dimension, adjust the station and plane again. Doing it this way gives you the opportunity to get it right
with out starting all over. When I get everything just right, push the strip up the form to its proper
location and finish planning all of the strips.

Working Tolerances

The goal is to hand plane all of the strips to within (+-)
0.0005" from the desired rod taper. A dime is .050"
thick and bond paper is 0.004" thick.

Gluing Rod Segments

I like to take the last 3-4 thousands of an inch off with a hand held scraper, this one was made from an
thickness industrial planer blade.

The strips are laid out waiting for a coat of "Shell Epon 826" industrial grade epoxy. When the glue is
applied, the strips are rolled up and then bound again in the Garrison binder.

Prepairing for Glue

Completed strips are squared up and laid out, in numerical order, on strips of masking tape.

Straighten Glued up Segments

Freshly glued up rod segments are placed in the steel planning form which has been set to match the rod
taper The segment is rolled and turned until it is straight and has no twists, an old a pizza roller is
inexpensive and works well. When done they will be hung up to dry at room temperature for 16-24 hours to
dry. This is the second exception I have from the drying cabinet, I don"t want the glue to set up too fast
from the heat in the cabinet.

Remove Excess Glue

The binding cord is removed from the rod segments and then rubbed down with denatured alcohol. The
epoxy softens a bit and is scraped off with the edge of a razor. Don"t take off more of the epoxy than is
necessary, you don't want to remove any power fibers.

Finish Sanding

Curing the Epoxy

The rod is rebound with new binding cord, straightened again on
the planning form and then placed in a 180* convection oven for 4
hours to cure the epoxy.

A small amount of glue will probably work its way out of the blank during the curring process, I quickly
remove it with a quick pass of 320 grit production paper and finish up with 600 grit lubricated with
mineral spirits. As soon as possible after sanding, I apply a coat of "Tung Oil" to the blank and hang
them up in the drying cabinet. Over the next several days I will apply one coat a day, rubbing out
between coats with 0000 steel wool, until I have applied 3 coats. The rod blanks will now remain in the
drying cabinet until they are wrapped and finished.

Feathering the Ferrule

Ferrules require some hand work before
they are installed. The ferrule tabs must
be thinned down to allow for a flexible
transition from the ferrule to the rod. In
the photo, I have installed a 13/64" drill
bit inside the female end of the ferrule,
it is held in place by friction. The lathe
is set at about 600 r.p.m. and started
up. Using your finger and a small strip
of 400 grit sandpaper, apply pressure to
the edge of the spinning ferrule. The idea
is to produce a smooth paper thin taper
at the edge of the ferrule, stop and check

The purpose of this section is to give the potential purchaser a little bit of understanding of what is
required to build a "Hand Crafted Rod" and to pass of a little bit of knowledge on to those of you out
there that may want to try and tackle a project like this yourself. For the latter, if you have any questions
contact me I will be happy to share what I know with you.

When the ferrules come from the manufacture, the male end is 2-3 thousands of an inch over sized. The
male end will require hand fitting/resizing in order to properly mate with the female end. The first step
required is to measure the depth required to fit the female ferrule and then transfer that to the male
end. On Super-Z type ferrules, this has already been done for you as there is a slight ridge on the male
end of the ferrule. Wrap this location with several turns of painters tape, the tape will protect the
adjacent finish from damage while resizing. Tear off piece of 0000 steel wool and roll it up between your
fingers forming a rope, dip it into some acetone and insert it into the female end, spin it around several
times to remove any debris and oil that may have been left from the manufacturing process. Clean the
inside again with a acetone and Q-tips and follow up with Q-tips and denatured alcohol . Cut a long strip
of 600 grit paper a bit wider than the depth you want to remove from the male ferrule. With your fingers
pinched around the sandpaper and ferrule, rotate the ferrule with your other hand. This will take off
just a bit of metal, I spin it 6 times and then move on to a new section of paper as it quickly clogs up
with metal. For the first 2 or 3 times that you spin the paper try to keep a bit more pressure on the ends
leading edge, this will round it over a bit and make it easier to fit later on. After having done a few
turns with the paper, switch to the 0000 steel wool and give it a few spins, this will polish it up. Wipe the
end of the ferrule clean with a tissue dampened in denatured alcohol, apply a bit of WD 40 to the male
end and test its fit, don't force it!. It will take some time to get to where you want to be, be patient
you want to slowly sneak up on the correct size. Clean the WD 40 off with alcohol and start the process
over again until you feel that it is just starting to fit. When it does, switch to 1000 grit paper followed
with a polish from 0000 steel wool. When it just starts to go in, about 1/4", use only the steel wool as
your abrasive. When you get the proper fit it will be snug and the male will just slide up to his shoulder,
when it is removed you will hear a satisfying Pop!

Locating the Guides

The guides are positioned and taped in place with small strips of painters tape. The next step is to install a
temporary fly line and subject the rod to a static stress test. What you are trying to do is to make sure
that the guides are placed exactly where they need to be. There are computer programs and guidelines
that will approximate the location of the guides, but they will not tell you exactly where they need to be.
Only by installing the guides, placing the rod under stress and repositioning the guides as necessary, will
you get the correct location for each.

Wrapping Line and Stripper Guides

Line guides and strippers are wrapped with Gossamer silk.

Color Choices

Just a few of the many colors to choose from. The final color obtained depends upon how the silk is
treated before varnishing. If the silk has a color preserver applied prior to varnishing, it will result it what
you see is what you get. It can also be treated to become translucent. As an example, if I used white silk
and treated it to become translucent, it would completely disappear. The color sample stick above shows a side
to side comparison of how each color reacts to each treatment. I know it is difficult to see here, but a
sample will be sent to you if you have difficulty deciding on the colors you like

Varnishing

I use a drip-tube to apply spar varnish to the rod. Using this
system of applying the finish will give you a glass like appearance
that really shows off!

Broken Shore Peter Temple

For the first time in Russian - the crime novel of the Australian writer Peter Temple "Broken Shore" (2005), awarded a number of prestigious literary awards: "Duncan Lowry's Dagger" (the largest detective award in the English-speaking world), "Australian Book Publishers Association Award" ("Australian Booker" ) etc. Not far from the quiet seaside town of Port Monroe, an elderly businessman, respected member of society and well-known philanthropist Charles Burgoyne was mortally wounded in his own mansion. The investigation is headed by a police officer...

This is an option for vaginal sex. The lady lies on her back, the man sits on top, inserts his penis, then turns diagonally. In theory, during sex, the partner should rotate on the partner, either left or right, all the time. Now it’s clear why this pose is called “Helicopter”.

Some call the helicopter position the basis of Eastern, tantric, primordial and therapeutic sex. And theorists call it a “pseudo-eastern” pose; they claim that the helicopter will happen when both partners fall out of bed in the ecstasy of rotation.

The subtlety of the execution is that the partners should lie with their legs tightly pressed. Otherwise, you won’t get a strong “grip.”

Well, whether or not to try this position in bed is a personal matter for each individual couple.

Helicopter in Russian

This pose is more extreme and spectacular. If you are not confident in your abilities, then it is better not to even try to repeat it! To actually perform this pose you will need a very strong ceiling fan. The lady attaches herself to the fan with her hands, lifts her legs, then throws them over her partner’s shoulder blades, lifting her buttocks higher so that the partner can insert his penis. Then the fan turns on...

Yes, as mentioned above, it is better not to experiment with such a position, unless, of course, you are fans of extreme sex and have already tried almost all existing positions.

Return helicopter

The “Helicopter” pose is generally unusual in itself, but the reverse helicopter is still one of the most realistic. The woman should lie on her back, the man should lie on top of her with his stomach, with his head towards his partner’s feet. The lady puts her legs on the man’s shoulders and grabs her partner’s buttocks with her hands so that the frequency can be adjusted with the depth of insertion of the penis. What is the point of a helicopter, you ask? It’s just that a man from this position must turn clockwise without interrupting sex, and then take a missionary position.

Simple helicopter

Many argue that twisting and turning is a waste of time in sex. To get new pleasant sensations, just change the degree of entry from the missionary position.

So we looked at options for the “Helicopter” pose, the largest of which are suitable for circus acrobats. Whether to experiment or not - decide for yourself, but keep in mind that many couples have already had to lie that they fell from a stepladder, ladder, etc., without admitting that the cause of bruises, and sometimes even fractures, were “oriental” sex techniques!

Many men want a woman to control sex. This is why the “woman on top” position is so common. And for a lady, this is a great opportunity to dominate in bed. Then the entire sexual act depends on the woman’s ability to subjugate her partner’s sexual arousal.

The “woman on top” position gives you the opportunity not only to insert your penis into the vagina with your own hands. At the same time, a man can admire the beauty of his partner, her grace. Before having sex in this position, you need to remember some of its features. You should not immediately insert the penis “all the way”. Those whose penis head is very sensitive will not like this. Well, if you immediately sit on top of him, then you need to do it slowly, gracefully, beautifully spreading your legs. You need to keep your back straight, swaying your chest beautifully.

If the man is sufficiently excited, then you can insert the penis without using your hands. When the penis is located along the body, you need to put your hands on your hips and make a couple of graceful movements with them. Now take the penis with your hand and insert it into yourself. Or you can massage the penis with your hands first so that your partner gets additional pleasure.

In the “woman on top” position, the lady takes control of sex. You can enjoy the situation to your heart's content.

When is it preferable to be a “horsewoman”?

The “woman on top” position, aka, will give both of them maximum pleasure when the man’s penis is very large. In addition, the lady can control the depth of insertion of the penis. But in other positions, sex sometimes causes painful sensations. If the lady is not yet aroused enough, the “woman on top” position allows you to massage the clitoris. You can play with your nipples or let your partner do it. If you squeeze your thighs tightly, the penis will massage the clitoris, helping to achieve maximum pleasure during sex.

For some reason, positions in a standing position are not so popular among couples, although sex while lying down often loses its passion due to a lazy position on the bed. But in a standing pose called “Peach” there will be no time to yawn.

Technique

To make love in this position, both partners must be facing each other. The lady spreads her legs (a little more than hip width) and stands on bent knees. The man squeezes his legs and bends his knees slightly. The man inserts his penis, starting to straighten and squat, while holding his partner by the buttocks - this allows you to speed up or slow down the movements of sexual intercourse.

Whose zodiac sign suits the "Peach" pose?

This position is ideal for Aquarius - they are sexual experimenters by nature. In this position, they will definitely be interested in a whole series of orgasms in a row, which will quench their passionate ardor.

Peculiarities

The "Peach" position is a favorite position for men who have average or more. In this Kama Sutra position, the angle of entry is quite inconvenient, so it is possible to reach the goal with a significant penis size. But the female clitoris in this position reaches the highest arousal; a woman can experience a couple of orgasms in a row. And the frank glances of the partners, combined with free hands, will make love games protracted.

Pose options

This pose can be improved. For example, a lady can raise one leg, securing it at her partner’s waist, slightly leaning her body back. Or the partner can lift her bent leg, pressing her to him by the buttocks - this way the penetration will be deeper.

In general, no matter what kind of sex you prefer - calm in bed or rough on the floor, we recommend trying to have sex standing up in the sensual "Peach" position.

Strong intimate relationships with partners cannot exist without variety in sex. For those who have been together for a long time, it is recommended to regularly use interesting positions to add extra passion to lovemaking. The “Scissors” pose is quite interesting; if desired, this position can be supplemented.

Features of the “Scissors” pose

The technique of this pose is very simple, thanks to which partners with any level of physical fitness can practice it. So, this is what this pose looks like: the girl lies on her back (you can lie on a table), her hips are pushed to the very edge, her legs are straight and raised. The partner stands facing her, holding her legs. Before entering, he spreads the girl's legs, then crosses them, moving. During sexual intercourse, the partner periodically spreads and moves the legs - this creates the effect of scissors.

You can add theatricality to the action; for this, the girl just needs to wear stockings and high-heeled shoes. Your partner will appreciate it; it wouldn’t hurt to wear an erotic bodysuit or beautiful lingerie.

This position in itself is very unusual, it creates new impressions: with the legs spread and closed, the female womb changes slightly - with the legs crossed, a tight fit is achieved, with the legs spread, deep penetration is achieved. The impressions from such sex are enchanting! And since it’s more convenient to have sex in this position on a table, it will add passion, because sex in bed gets boring quickly.

Guys love this position for the wonderful view of their partner. The girl can influence the pace, as she reaches her partner’s hips with her hands. It is recommended to use a towel so that the edge of the table does not cause discomfort to the man - this will soften the touch, making the contact more pleasant.

During the process, the girl can change her position a little - just lift her shoulder blades off the table and lean on her elbows. This technique opens up a new view for the partner, causing intense arousal. In addition, this allows him to touch his beloved’s breasts, which is something men always love.
