    Washington State turners

    Which of you live in Washington State? The home of big leaf maple and the Olympics.
    Where did I put those band aids?

    Well, I am in Oregon... Home to big leaf maple, which I seldom turn, Pacific Madrone my favorite wood, and Oregon Myrtle wood which is actually a California Bay Laurel....

    I have - quite an experience, but once was enough. They’ve been offering free dinners to go on Wednesdays as a response to the isolation since their farm is still producing. Good stuff and a nice treat for us locals.

    Kingston, Washington here, but I'm very much a noob in the turning arts.

    Russell still actively posts in the Facebook Olympic turners group. I turned my first bowl with him as over instruction.

    There are several turners - and many that would fit nicely into the ‘world class’ category in the area. There are clubs in Olympia, Bremerton, Seattle, Mt Vernon, Fife and Sequim that I know of. I know of a few in the Shelton area. Go to the AAW site and you can locate the club or clubs closest to you. Its a good way to meet turners and share info.
