wood choice/ dowel sources

What would be your first choice for wood for a swimmer? Cedar?
I talked with an old timer one time who told me to use cyprus.
I priced it and it's pretty expensive....

Another question. I'm using an old jewelers lathe that a friend gave to me and it isn't set up to take square stock, only dowels. Centering is another story... Any suggstions for dowl sources, up to 2" in diameter?
