       @hn50 The frustrating thing is, I backed 2 #kickerstarter project to grow plant stem straws, so you didn't have to:1. Grow a tree2. Cut it down3. Make it into paper4. Have a complicated machine to change the paper into a tubeInstead they just had to:1. Grow a suitable plant2. Harvest a suitable plant3. Chop it into lengthsOne produced a product (which I received), but then nothing else happened.The other one just stopped giving updates and I've not heard from it for years :(
