Can drying cause the wood to split or check?

Frequently Asked Questions - Drying & Dehydration | Nyle...
Wood does shrink as it dries, but the shrinkage doesn't start until the lumber is below fiber saturation, about 28% moisture content. If the outside surface is below 28% while the center of the board is still above fiber saturation, the outside will try to shrink while the center doesn't- and if this continues, until the surface becomes too dry in relation to the core, the lumber will split or check.

Superficial nicks and scratches that have cut into the finish film, or even cut all the way into the wood underneath, can be camouflaged with color treatment and waxing. Wax sticks in a variety of colors are available from the hardware store. Paste shoe polish applied with a cotton swab can be used to color the exposed wood. If the scratch is just on the top of the finish film and not very deep, a simple buffing with a furniture wax will restore the luster to the finish. See similar questions...

Can be split?

NBA Salary Cap FAQ
If a team is below the cap, then their Disabled Player, Bi-Annual, Mid-Level and/or Traded Player exceptions are added to their team salary, and the league treats the team as though they are over the cap. This is to prevent a loophole, in a manner similar to free agent amounts (see question numbers 29, 30, 31, 32). A team can't act like they're under the cap and sign free agents using cap room, and then use their Disabled Player, Bi-Annual, Mid-Level and/or Traded Player exceptions. See similar questions...

I've got split ends - what's the best way to repair them?

longhair: FAQ, take 1
There isn't one. All those products that claim to repair split ends? They lie. There's nothing that can be done for a broken piece of hair except to trim it off, and the sooner the better. Some products, such as -cone based anti-frizz treatments, will seal the hair in a coat of silicone. That will temporarily keep the split from getting worse, same as you can paint a peeling house with another coat of paint to keep it from peeling so quickly. See similar questions...
