    It's also possible the cracks are from oversanding. As with the actual cutting, anything that generates heat can cause microfractures to show overnight.

    Although it's tempting to get "stuck in" with the grits, lots of light, intermittent applications is kinder to the wood. Especially burl.
    I may be weird, but I'm saving up to become eccentric.
