Finished with Tung oil. I plan on putting another coat on but I couldn't wait to share.

I found red cedar to be notoriously hard to turn without risk of explosion. Well done!

Thank you! I have had a couple of pieces blow up in my face. I started taking less aggressive cuts and slowed the speed down. I've had better luck since. Or maybe I'm getting lucky haha.
