Any thoughts on turning apple? Ease? Precautions? Finishing?


Beautiful wood. Difficult - well, easy to turn and finish, IMHO, but
moves a great deal and is prone to cracking - might want to apply
whatever method(s) you believe in with some fervor. ie, boiling, ldd,
paper bags, anchorseal, microwave...

Or just turn it and see what happens. Or try drying the blanks first,
but unless you are making small blanks (or parts for segmenting), I
think you'll have better luck with at least roughing it green, and might
want to try finish turning a few green and letting them go oval.
