I would appreciate any feedback from Turner's Choice Wood Stabilizer users (also called Cedar Shield). Specifically I am after:
1. How long should green wood 1st turned bowl blanks be soaked?
2. How long does it take a soaked bowl to dry before final turning?
3. Does the product cause any discoloration of the wood?
4. Any problems with shellac, oil, or wax finishes after treating with Turner's Choice?
5. The product claims to be non-toxic, environment safe. Does this include the dust created during the turning process (other that the possible allergens from the wood dust itself)?
Thanks in advance for any info you can send my way. Rand, member Redwood Coast Woodturners, AAW
