: I need help finding Western Red and White cedar boards to rip
: strips for a sea kayak I want to build. I live in Delaware and
: have tried all of the lumber places in my area, and all i've
: been able to find is Spanish Cedar. Alaskan Yellow would
: probably work too for accent strips to the Western Red. Any help
: would be greatly appreciated. I would gladly take a day trip out
: of state if I could find the wood boards.
: Thanks,

I know there is a place in Conn. that specializes in white cedar. Normally you need to search the places that specialize in hardwood to find decent WRC, but in the spring and summer most big box lumber yards stock it for decks, but it tends to be full of knots, have to search to find sections of boards that are knot free.
