In Response To: Unusual Wood for NE - Pacific Cypress?? (John B.)

Hi John,

Pacific Coast Cypress is also known as Alaskan Yellow Cedar and is a great softwood for skin on frame kayak frames as well as other uses. Easy to work, strong and steams/bends well. Where did you find it so cheap? Please email me if you want to avoid a rush of people buying it all up. It's a great wood! buy some. (and I'll buy the rest!)

Good Luck

Jed
