I started this piece a few months ago and wasn't sure what to do with the crack, so had it sat on the side waiting for me to think of an idea. That's what I love about Woodturning, no two pieces are the same, and every piece of wood has its flaws. I knew I wanted to preserve the crack in some way so thought the best way was to lace it in leather strips.
How do you think I did?
The piece has been sanded to 1200 grit and finished with red dye and wood wax.

Disclaimer:
My videos are for entertainment purposes only. Some of my techniques might not be the "best" or safest, so when using any tool or machinery always read and understand safety/manufacturers guidelines first.
And Yes, I'm aware that wearing gloves while woodturning is considered an unsafe practice. The gloves I wear are tight-fitting and don’t have any loose threads. I wear them for the protection of my skin. This is a risk that I am willing to take, however I am still very conscious of the potential danger and I do not touch any spinning parts of the lathe. DO NOT copy my actions if you feel unsafe doing so.
