Cedar logs

[STOVE]

I have some cedar logs that need something done with. Are they worth hitting up a local furniture maker to see if they want them?

I assume they don’t make great firewood with how light the wood is. Any other good uses?

Fence posts. Sills.

If they are 8’6’ or longer, I would see about getting them milled. More useful as lumber than firewood

Best little raised bed garden I ever had was made of red cedar logs.

Put them up on FB and some landscaper will scoop them up for for ruff flowerbed log edging, posts, split flower bed boxes...ect

You find any good use? I've got maybe 70 large logs. 20'+ long, 8-10" diameter on the skinny end.

Western Cedar or Eastern Red Cedar (Juniper)? Western is more valuable for lumber but board clarity is most important.

Typically milling to 1” lumber is best. Often as T&G.

Mill it and sell it. Custom Turkey call makers like it also.

Eastern red cedar is hands down my favorite wood.
