I was picking up my shop today and found a couple pieces of what I thought were aromatic red cedar. I think they were salvaged from our city's yard waste disposal site. (don't tell I wasn't supposed to take wood from there). I had sliced it into a couple 2 x4" shaped three feet long. They have dried for at least a year maybe more. I took a plane to one face wanting a positive identification, knowing the scent would tell me, but there is hardly any smell.
I or my family doesn't have Corona Virus and none of us could really smell anything. Suppose I got the wood type wrong, or does some not have much scent?
I was always told if you wanted to bring back the scent in a cedar chest to give it a light sanding. I thought a hand plane would really bring it around. Not.
