Epoxy seal them and they will be fine. (For pencils)

I would not use red cedar for needles unless you want some floaters.

the wood #^&#^&#^&#^& had at plug fest was white cedar and cypress. the cypress is nearly the same as AYC.
If I knew I was going to live this long, I would have taken better care of myself!!

Finatic you are right, it was white cedar! I have 1 piece downstairs sitting next to some AYC and it looked so dark I was thinking it was red.. I haven't turned any of it yet, but I have it stacked in my shed and boy does my shed smell nice...
