Has anyone had experience of bent lamination of Spanish Cedar?


no experience with spanish cedar what are the traits

but what cedar i have used it seems very inflexible when completely
dry

i think the most recent cedar was some dry western red cedar


have never tried bent laminations and i know steam allows amazing
bends but have to have a steam setup of course


My understanding/recollection is that Spanish Cedar is actually a member of the Mahogany family, not cedar...
