There were many ways to connect bamboo chips, and one of the most common methods was to connect them with a bayonet. The bayonet was a metal joint that could be used to secure the connection. However, there were some problems with the use of nails when making bamboo products, such as high cost, metal scraps that polluted the environment, and the lack of coordination with bamboo chips. In order to solve these problems, someone proposed an eco-friendly, low-cost bamboo nail suitable for connecting and fixing bamboo chips. The bamboo nail consists of a bamboo nail, a bamboo nail body and a bamboo nail tip in turn along the length direction. The shape of the bamboo nail cap can be a hemisphere, a round table or a polyhedron, and the thickness is generally 2-5 mm. This method of bamboo nail connection could play an auxiliary role in fixing, and the bamboo needed to be punched in advance before use. In summary, the bamboo strips could be connected by this kind of eco-friendly bamboo nail.

It is indeed a true story to an extent. The Hatfields and McCoys' conflict was real, but in its retelling, details might be embellished or simplified. Still, the overall framework comes from actual events.
