red cedar for pencils & needles?
Ok, its early june and I already need to make more pencils & needles. Guess I was slacking last winter... I have 2 bundles of that nice red cedar from plugfest, do you guys think red cedar is too soft for pencils ? Will the constant hook swing chew em up worse that AYC?
I made some floating needles from pine and I've noticed they get damaged a lot easier than my ayc or maple needles. I need more floating needles and I was also thinking of using the red cedar for this application too....
Maybe I need to epoxy seal the blanks to toughen them up?
