Pair of Red Cedar Rockers

Very nice!

-- Joe from Western Ma.... Peace to all

Nice, like the cupholders. Cedar does have a lot going on, but I find it difficult to finish at times.

These turned out nice. I love cedar and these look beautiful. Good job.

The table between them looks great too. Looks like it was a difficult build! LOL

Thanks for the looks and comments.
Chaotic, I finished these rockers with 5 thin coats of minwax spar urethene applied with a hvlp sprayer. Seems to be a durable finish that really enchances the cedars color and grain. I have used shellac on some indoor cedar projects and it does a beautiful job. I have tried minwax and rustoleum brand waterbased poly on cedar and my projects turned almost brown within a few days, very disapointing. I like the low fumes and clean up of water based poly but not on cedar.

Beautiful. Of course I love the Cedar.

Well done love the wood and the finish.

Thanks Bowtie, it’s funny but that’s exactly what I ended up using on some Adirondack chairs I made a couple years ago. Same method of application as well. Another solid cedar item I made was a small blanket chest. On that I used Minwax wipe on poly and it didn’t retain the fresh cut cedar look either. It stayed tacky much longer than other woods I’ve finished with WOP too.

I like the red cedar, gives the chairs a nice look and the cup holders are a nice touch.
