    Really? Come over to Florida. Where 50% is considered desert dry. The hygrometer hanging on the wall above my desk is showing 53% inside and 69% outside right now. With 80 degrees inside and outside.

    There’s another wood movement condition to consider. Where the piece is sitting is there direct sunlight on on side during the day is it by a window. Is one side up against the wall and the other seeing air from a cooling system
    I know it can make a difference. My wife’s dresser the molding have moved on one side. It’s the side that’s next to a window.
