Porper handling and stablizing of Madrone
Madrone in a very self-distructive wood. Sometimes it will crack and twist on you in a matter of hours even minutes in hot weather. But don't let that scare you. It is a beautiful wood to turn on a lathe or what ever the application.

You have 2 options at this point.... do you want the form to stay true shape or distort. Some turners like it to twist and warp.
