Woodturning - A Cracking Vase

This is project should have been finished and published a week ago and was supposed to be a quick infill project while I work on some more complex things for the channel, lets just say if it could go wrong it did. The problems started even with drying the wood, took an extra week to get it dried, and even then the wood split and warped more excessively than expected on the bottom piece, to the point where I wasn't sure I could save it.

Wood is Cherry. Finished in Danish oil.
