With the scarcity of clear vertical grain white cedar, is there a reason why I can't use CVG Western Red cedar (or something else), for ribs and planking? Or, can I use white flat grain cedar for the ribs, and red cvg for the planks? I know I should use CVG white for pretty much everything except the ribs near the ends, in a perfect world. Unfortunately, my world is far from perfect, so I,m looking at compromises without sinking my boat.
How does WRC compare to white for bending and expansion?
Thank you for your time.
