Cremation Urn - SteveS - 04-13-2022
Finished this project yesterday. My grandad, who died in 2001, would have been eleventy one this year. He's been residing in a cardboard box since then with the plan his ashes would be spread where he grew up in Michigan, but I doubt that will happen so I turned this cremation urn from western big leaf maple, African blackwood, cherry and camphor burl. He was a woodworker as his profession until his retirement at age 80.

What Allan said. Well done as well buddy. Thank you for showing us. On the age do you mean 111?
I built two so far and both were for my in-laws. Sorry days for me when they both passed away years apart. I always told them and my wife that I wish I had them as parents.

Very nice job. I don't have the patience for segmented work.
I've turned a few urns for family members. It can be a rewarding, and sometimes difficult experience. The rewards have always outweighed the difficulties for me.
