I need a small sheet of thin Spanish Cedar for the insode lid of a humidor.

Needs to be about 12" x 8"

Anybody know a good source? The local woodworking shop has it, but the smallest piece you can buy is 4' x 8'!!!!!!

They have blocks and a kit for lining a complete humidor.
I just need one small, thin sheet
 
Check Ebay then. Or, look in the yellow pages for the nearest millworks.
 
First, that 4x8 sheet the local place had is plywood.

Second, any solid wood from a lumber broker is going to be between 4 an 6 inches wide.

Third, I don't have a third.

If you lack either the experience or tools needed to joint this wood, you can always make your own plywood with this stuff.

If you end up using any kind of saw or sander in this, WEAR A MASK AND EYE PROTECTION. Spanish cedar is highly irritating to the mucous membranes.

I suggest nobody buy this for a humidor. Juniperus Virginia is what they sell. This is Eastern red cedar which is overly aromatic. This is what people put in closets to keep moths away.

I don't know where you came up with Juniperus Virginia, But under "spanish cedar" they quote the genus "cedrela" or Spanish Cedar". I have purchased from this site and can vouch for it's selling Spanish Cedar. In case you might think I am an Idiotus Americanus, I can say that I have compared my purchase to my humidor and cigar boxes. So, If i have been duped in all my other Spanish Cedar experiences, I guess I was duped in this one as well. http://www.woodnshop.com/hardwood/SPANISH_CEDAR.htm This link will show a picture of the product which looks nothing like Eastern Red Cedar.

Excuse me but I don't believe I attacked you. I certainly didn't call you or even imply you were an "Idiotus Americanus." I merely stated a suggestion based on the only other cedar, Juniperus Virginiana which was located in the CEDAR SECTION. I must have missed the spanish cedar in in the hardwood price list.

I never said you attacked me. I just responded to your dismissive post. I, like everyone else here, at least I hope, would only post authentic info. I apologize if you took my " Idiotus" as defensive....It was a joke.
 
Just a misunderstanding. I saw somebody else make the mistake of using western red and I just didn't want that happening to one of you guys. I should have looked at the rest of the site more thoroughly. It's over now.
 
I think we're going to have to seperate them. Or like my dad would say, If I have to pull over , there will be hell to pay!!!!!!!!
 
don't know where you can get spanish cedar, but I do got a hook up for black market dvd's!!!!!!!!!

:lol:
