I've been waxing the ways every time I turn but the thing gets soaked (as does everything else in my shop within 15 feet) and it is pretty hard to get it all dry without taking everything off the bed...

I live in Parkersburg, WV. I've looked up clubs and found Mountaineer Woodturners but wasn't able to make their meetings since I got my lathe due to work travel, hoping to hit the next one in Feb

Sounds like you need to think about shower curtains and rods. Others do this just to contain wood chips from getting all over the shop, it works for water also.
