SPOTLIGHT ON
WESTERN RED CEDAR - Most of the cedar you’ll encounter for woodworking hails from the
Pacifi c Northwest. In the trade it’s called western red cedar (
Thuja plicata).
However, there are other cedars available, too, with a few variations
between them, and, yet, they’re all in the same cypress family. |
