Discover the unparalleled beauty and durability of 18″ Alaskan Yellow Cedar hand-split shakes from Direct Cedar Supplies, the top USA supplier for authentic, high-grade cedar roofing and siding materials. Sourced directly from premium old-growth Alaskan forests, our hand-split shakes deliver a timeless rustic charm with superior weather resistance, making them the ideal choice for homeowners, builders, and architects seeking long-lasting, eco-friendly roof shakes and wall cladding. Unlike ordinary cedar products, these shakes boast exceptional density and stability, weathering to a stunning silver-gray patina that enhances any architectural style—from coastal cabins to modern mountain retreats.
These shakes have split faces and sawn backs. Cedar logs are first cut into desired lengths. Blanks or boards of proper thickness are split and then run diagonally through a bandsaw to produce two tapered shakes from each blank.
Thicknesses: ½” and ¾”
