Chamaecyparis ob.
Hinoki Cypress (Chamaecyparis ob.) is a soft wood that works easily but dents readily, with a Janka hardness of 451 lbf (2006 N) and a density of about 0.42 g/cm³. It originates from other.
With radial shrinkage of 2% and tangential shrinkage of 4.5% (a T/R ratio of 2.25), it is moderately stable — allow for seasonal movement in wide boards. Its fiber saturation point is around 30%, below which the wood begins to shrink and move as it dries.
These figures feed directly into the Vriksai calculators below — select Hinoki Cypress in any of them to get species-specific results for weight, moisture, shrinkage and hardness.
