A friend and I picked up a pallett of Cedar & walnut at an auction a few years ago. I'm not much of a woodworker, but I wanted to build a cedar closet and coundn't see paying money for a "box o' wood." Of course I haven't built the cedar clost yet, and the wood has lost most of it's aroma, just stickered in the basement, but the 60+ pieces of full 1" x 8" x 8' takes up a big piece of floor space.
The Walnut was a bonus, at the bottom of the pallet. There's about
40+ pieces also 1" x 8" x 8'My friend said that the cedar is " Aromatic," but my question is: What should I do with iit. I could resaw it to 1/2" , plane it and make a closet. There's a lot of it. Is there any oother use for it?
I have even less clue about the walnut. I don't know what kind of walnut iit is, even if it matters. What iis it good for?
I'd love some info, and would be willing to share my the wood for some help. I'd also be willing to send some small pieces for ID help. As I mentioned the auction cost was relatively little, it's more that "Good Wood is a Terrible Thing to Waste"
