    Light-colored Rings on Cherry Spindle

    Hi All,

    I'm building a federal style candlestand that has the birdcage that allows the top to rotate and tilt. I'm new to this turning thing and ended up with these light colored bands on the posts! They popped up after I put a coat of finish on (watco danish oil). I sanded to 320 on the lathe and then scuffed with 220 with the grain.

    Has anyone seen this before? Can I correct it or do I need to turn new spindles? If I need to turn new ones, how do I prevent it?

    Thanksn in advance!
    Bob
