I never had good luck burying a cut turning blank in shavings (cracks) so in the summer I'll place the blanks in a garbage can filled with water. This is fine as long as the water is changed every three days. I let this last batch sit for about 5 days:eek: Did you ever smell pond water... the entire piece of wood filled with that stink. This is one mistake I'll never make again.
I showed my wife the turning... she didn't say it looks good or anything nice but "get that out of here". I guess she doesn't appreciate art in it's natural form:D Thank goodness the smell does go away when dry.
One more to go...
