It's never easy to share these messages. We will miss our friend Gary Olerud who passed away last night. Gary was a dedicated member of our club and was always willing to serve and help others learn. His woodturning pieces are world-class. RIP friend.

The club visited Eureka Springs School of the Arts today for our monthly hands on meeting. We turned 35 pens and 8 pencils for the school to use as gifts for key stakeholders. They school will have the pens laser engraved and assemble them before they are gifted. Great to visit with each other once again live.
A 7” piece of 3/4” extreme curly maple turned into a small platter. Sunburst finish inspired by Fender and Gibson guitars. Finish is yellow, orange, and red alcohol based dyes applied while the piece is spinning on the lathe. Spray lacquer provides the gloss. This piece is offered in our bring back raffle tomorrow for the Stateline Woodturners meeting.
Holly is always a great wood to turn. This one had a lot of great color.

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.
If you haven’t been out to visit Rackensack Kilns then you’re missing out, and if you need an excuse you’re in luck!![]()

This saturday May 15th is a SLABURDAY SATURDAY! On top of all the slabs, cookies, and woodworking products they sell, they’ll be showing off some machinery, hosting a few local artisans like Stateline Woodturners, offering snacks, a gourmet food and ice cream truck (Justin Eaton’s The Food Truck,) and tons of other cool stuff! ![]()

Don’t miss it this Saturday from 10a-5p at Rackensack Kilns at 18943 HWY 62 in Garfield AR.
I need your help identifying the wood this cane was made from. We were told the tree the wood came from grows like this. The cane belonged to my grandmother and she got it here in the state of Arkansas. Thank you for your help.
What have you been turning? Found some great 2” thick walnut locally and was happy to make this platter to show off the natural beauty of the wood. Made by Ray Taylor
Fun meeting today—we had 28 members gather online today for our January meeting. Great shop tour and demonstration.
Someone says free walnut and Stateline Woodturners will be on it like a beaver! Thanks Larry Copas for volunteering to be the designated sawyer! A portion of the turnings will be gifted back to the organization that donated the wood.
It’s with a heavy heart that I share the news of Gerald’s passing. We lost a great man who proudly served his country, his family, and his community with great honor. You are loved and missed. Here’s a toast.
