Question about Western Red Cedar for canoe builders

[ebeeby]

Would 2 logs of western red cedar be of interest to a builder? If so, I will post a classified with photos and etc. Just wondered if old growth logs (2 ) which are 12' and 11' length and 30" to 35" in diameter have any special value to a builder who uses quite a lot of western red.

If not, I won't go through the trouble of posting a classified and uploading the photos etc.

I dunno if they are of interest to the average builder, but they are to me!

Mark,

YEP, just buy them, have them UPS'ed to NH, I'll saw them to your specs on the woodmizer and UPS them to Reno! Piece of cake! That wood would be the most expensive western red cedar ever tacked onto a canoe, I bet!!! LOL , BG Hey how are the sassafras canoe paddles coming along??

I'll take that as a "no interest".

Nope. They're in Colorado and I'm in Dallas.

A few miles SW from Conifer on HWY 285 (within 30 miles of Denver, in the mountains)

Eric,

Nice offer but western red is readily available in Aye grade at "good" lumber yards.
Now if that was Northern white that would be a different story.
