re: Need some advice please

Having worked Washington cedar mills and played with more than a little of it, gotta go with the shipwright kid. It looks like Pacific Northwet Cedar. Looks like you got fast growth (warm winters and wide grain) and some cold stuff, so plan accordingly for aesthetics. It can be purty stuff.

You can have a lot of fun with it. It won’t be anything like Tennessee aromatic, except when being cut. You can make nice band saw boxes or whatever you come up with. Regardless, good gloat post.
