Rustic Western Red Cedar Boards – Select Tight Knot (STK) Grade
Perfect for garden beds, lawn furniture, fencing, and other exterior projects, these kiln-dried Western Red Cedar boards showcase the charm of rustic knots. Each board is an actual 7/8" thick and graded as Select Tight Knot (STK), allowing for attractive tight knots on the rough side, which adds to the natural, rustic appeal.
Crafted with S1S2E (surfaced 1 side and 2 edges) finish, one side remains rough to highlight its rustic character, while the other side and edges are planed smooth. This versatile feature allows you to choose the preferred aesthetic for your project or let the natural beauty shine through.
Western Red Cedar is renowned for its stability, straight grain, and exceptional durability in outdoor environments. Naturally resistant to rot and decay, it requires no chemical treatment, making it an eco-friendly choice for all your exterior woodworking needs. Expect a rich reddish-brown color that will age gracefully to a charming silver-gray when left untreated outdoors.
Favored for its lightweight and stability compared to treated yellow pine, Western Red Cedar is ideal for decks, garden beds, arbors, fences, shingles, and siding. Remember to use copper, stainless steel, or coated galvanized nails or screws, as cedar’s natural acids can be corrosive to some metals.
Elevate your outdoor projects with these durable, beautiful, and rustic Western Red Cedar boards.
