I am having trouble with the wood splitting while it is still on the lathe. I have turned several pieces of green wood from this tree and they all seem to split quickly. They are all from a Cherry tree. Yesterday I made a ball and left it on the lathe while I put brakes on my friends van. I came back to the lathe less then an hour later and the wood had split. Do I need to seal it every time that I walk away from It? The tree was fell a while back but I cut it and put green wood sealent on the ends. Is there something that I am doing wrong? Thanks for any help.
