Not all what its cracked up to be... Turning a green bowl and then drying.

[Jack Lilley]

It's the only way I turn. I coat the whole bowl with anchorseal, then on a shelf to dry. I rarely lose a bowl to cracks but when I do it's usually cherry.

Thanks Jack, much appreciated. will try that.

One thing I noted was when I took my last one off the lathe last night, it already had a small crack on the bottom which was not there before.
