8/4 Aromatic Cedar Lumber – 5-Pack | Kiln-Dried Hardwood | S2S
Aromatic Cedar is one of North America's most distinctive and functional wood types — instantly recognizable by its warm reddish-purple heartwood, creamy sapwood, and the unmistakable natural fragrance that has made it a woodworking staple for generations. 8/4 material offers the substantial depth needed for chest carcasses, solid furniture builds, and larger turning projects where both the signature scent and the natural colour contrast can be fully appreciated. Its natural oils provide built-in moth and insect resistance, making it the go-to species for storage builds that need to perform as beautifully as they look.
