Alaskan Yellow Cedar Tapersawn

Alaskan Yellow Cedar Tapersawn

Alaskan yellow cedar is the hardest known cedar in the world. It has been prized by roofers for many years because of its exceptional resistance to weather and insects as well as easy workability. First used by the West Coast Indians for their historic Totem Poles and great war canoes, it is a rare and often difficult to find lumber species.

Tapersawn Shakes are sawn on both sides giving it a look similar to a sawn shingle but with a thicker appearance, Tapersawn Shakes are known for their smooth uniform look compared to the rustic look of hand-split shakes.
