Dried cedar is very fragile and chips and splits easy, but don't give up on this piece. You can sand and grind cedar very well, instead of using chisels to shape it use an angle grinder and drum sander. When you switch to sharps to do the detail work watch the grain and carve with it or you will break it.

This will be a spectacular piece.
