Red Cedar Entry Roof
comments (2) September 7th, 2010 in Project GalleryThis is the new entry I built onto our new addition. I used clear western red cedar and wanted something that reflected some timberframe elements, particularly a through tenon, which I've always admired in Dutch timberframe barns. Mesmers natural stain has sustained a mellow look to the red cedar after several years.
