Cedar Spindle Blanks
Product code:
CEDASB_MST
Cedrus spp. Air and kiln dried
April 2023 update.
The current 2", 3" and 4" spindles are from recently kilned Lebanese cedar. Hardly discernable from Atlas except for the stronger aroma.
The 1 1/2" spindles are Atlas cedar
Blanks may include live knots and some wild grain which will need careful cutting.
The timber has a distinctive aroma (but not as pungent as Lebanese) which turns soft
and sands almost too easily although the oil in the timber does clog the abrasive quickly.
Hard wax oil seems to suit this timber but cellulose sanding sealer followed by wax will bring out a high shine. An unusually nice softwood to turn.
Whatever finish you use, it will soak it up somewhat.
