Hello,
I'm working with some wood that's supposed to be "royal cedar", or
cedrella odorata. It's very, very similar to "spanish cedar", and
indeed is sold as such. What I've noticed about the wood I'm using is
that it is much LESS aromatic than the spanish cedar I've worked with
in the past. I'm just diving into a google search, but I'm having
trouble finding information that would allow me to positively
distinguish between the two. It looks like "spanish cedar" comprises a
number of different species....
.....wait a minute. It now appears that cedrella (cedrela) odorata *is*
spanish cedar. Hmmm... I just like to know what species I'm working
with when I work it. Off to google. Further bulletins as events
warrant.
