``Hi, I have a Spalted maple blank, which I’ve waited too long to twice turn. Even though I had anchor seal on it, it still cracked. I’m turning the outside of the bowl and I put CA glue in the cracks but I’m wondering if it’s safe to continue.
Please see the attached picture. I was planning on twice turning this as the blank is not dried it yet, so I’ll turn it with thick walls, and the paper bag the blank with some of its sawdust for a long while. Just unsure about doing this when it has a crack already to start with.
Wondering if this is salvageable as I was concerned about turning the inside of the blank. I know that I could try and use epoxy as well, but I’ve not done that before.
Appreciate your advice.
Thank you!
