    Thanks, It looks like they do some pretty nice projects. I haven't called them yet but my guess is that those plywood panels are Western Red Cedar and not Spanish cedar. I found some this weekend and bought 5 sheets of 3/8". This was from a wholesaler for $60/sheet. Cedar is a little hard to work with because of "cupping". It is so hygroscopic (a good thing) that it wants to curl one direction when damp and the other when dry. The plywood will nail down but the 12"w shelves need to stay straight.

    I'm looking at doing the floor in cedar too. There is no cedar flooring because it's too soft but I think 1" T&G siding will do nicely when nailed to a 3/4" subfloor.

    Hopefully I will have so much cedar in there when finished that a beetle won't have a chance.
