I picked up some lilac wood and trial turned a small Y piece of it,
shaped the outside and glued on a disk to reverse the piece, it cracked
up bad while waiting for a short time to have the CA glue harden up,
have any of you turned and got better results with lilac, or is this a
case for boiling etc. ?

Lilac is one of the worst I have come across for cracking, but I have had
some success with boiling it, so I would definately give that a go.
