Hi there Christopher.Cupressus macrocarpa (Monterey Cypress, Macrocarpa; syn. Callitropsis macrocarpa (Hartw.) D.P.Little) is a species of cypress endemic to the central coast of California. In the wild, the species is confined to two small populations, near Monterey and Carmel.[2] These two small populations represent what was once a very large forest on the west coast. The surviving trees from this forest are as old as 2000 years.

Thats interesting. Thank you for the answer. I have a bunch of wood that smells like cinnamon when I sand it. I don’t know if it is cinnamon or not but I love to work it!

Further to Andyboy’s reply – macrocarpa is a common timber down here as the trees are planted as continuous windbreaks along fence lines on farms in windy areas – which pretty much defines the flat bits of New Zealand. Hard to find clears, most is merch grade. Smells great when worked.

Really like that cascade effect. Nothing better than good contemporary woodwork.
