Hi all, I've found a lot of info on moisture content but I haven't seen anything on how it effects finishing. To be more specific I am currently wondering if larger items (6-8" bowls, rolling pins, mills, etc) can be turned with a 15-20% moisture content and finished with no issues long term. Finishes like walnut or mineral oil, pens plus etc. I could see a CA, lacquer or poly finish having issues but not sure about these.
Thanks!
Warren
