LDD, not necessarily great solultion

Howdy: I have used the Costco dish detergent as per Leifs instructions.

I turned several cherry bowls, after the appropriate soaking. Immediately finishing them afterwards. None exhibited cracking. They all look nicely oval and raised up at the end grain end Joe

Hi, Joe: Your experience has been the exception. I would almost venture a bet that you didn't follow "Leif's instructions" to the letter. How about sending me an email with the exact procedure you used. I generally found that there were deviations in the procedure resulting in warping or cracking.

Joe is not the only one with this problem. Some, not all, my oak bowls have done the "oval thing." Soaked the nearly fully turned bowl (turned to 1/4 inch) overnight (24 hours) in a 1:1 solution and then finished the next day. The warping is not extreme, but is enough to seriously detract.

Deb! I would still like some more information as to the exact procedures used by Joe and you after you removed it from the solution after the 24 hour soak.
