Hi, as someone who does not suffer extremes of climate conditions at home base I've been wondering if you get problems with highly finished pieces if they migrate to different states with having big differences in temperature and humidity.
Having visited States up north and driven down through Texas I wonder about the ability of items finished with the high gloss multi layer poly finishes we see used by some turners to hold up if they travel to such extremes.
Got brought up here because of thoughts generated seeing lacquer finishes applied over oil base coats, not the best scenario for max adhesion without the wood movement, both physicaly and geographically, coming into the equation I would have thought.
