They're one of the most hopeless things I ever wasted money on. The
problem is that bamboos don't come with nice neat standard diameters,
so are either too big or too small for the holes and everything just
collapses. Nice idea in theory, hopeless in practice.
If you're still determined, Plastics by Post do them, under the name
of Build a Ball. http://www.plasticsbypost.net/
But I suggest you don't waste your money!
