I don't know a lot about wood finishing but sounds like maybe the wood wasn't properly dried. Since I don't know much about wood finishing I always use professionally stabilized wood. I had some highly figured oak once and I sent that out to have it stabilized. Professionally stabilized wood requires nothing more than sanding and buffing to finish and it doesn't shrink, doesn't swell, doesn't absorb...in other words it's stable ....
