what do I do next time. Bought a $24.99 Marble Wood (plain) block to make 6 tooth pick holders. Roughed out three last night; this morning two had checks. I'm bothered more by the loss of time than the material.
The block was very wet while turning so I did expect warping. Did I pick the wrong wood, how do you prevent checking after the turning has been roughed?
