I have tried to turn bowls out of Mulberry several times over the past
few years. It is fun to turn BUT I have never been able to stop if
from cracking. It either cracks before I can get it on the lathe or it
cracks while it is on the lathe or it cracks after its off the lathe.

Repeat, LDD, finish immediately after turning.
