36" x 3/4" Western Red Cedar Handsplit Shakes
There was a time when settlers hand-cut, split, and milled their own shakes—often choosing three, four, even five-foot lengths! With old-growth cedar readily available at the time, these shakes became a defining feature of historic cabins.
At Direct Cedar, we are blessed to help restore some of these timeless structures. Here’s a look at the stunning 36″ x 3/4″ Western Red Cedar Handsplit Shakes we supplied for a ranger station in Williamstown, NJ. 
If you have a custom project in mind, let’s chat! We’d love to bring your vision to life and revive a little bit of history
