A few years ago, my mom was visiting from Oregon, and I made for her a keepsake box out of a hunk of hurricane Ike blowdown camphor I am pretty sure it was (it smelled like, and still smells like Vicks...).
She saw the bandsaw jewelry box I made for my wife, the clock on the mantle, and the urn for our beloved Laborador retriever...
Now mom is far from a young lady at 78, and is giving a lot of thought to her last place to chill on earth... And has asked me to do the build...
Good thing she wants to be cremated! I couldn't imagine doing a casket build in Texas, and then shipping it to Oregon, while dealing with Funeral homes, and the like...
Now, I have never done an urn for a person, just a very large dog... I am clueless as to how large the interior volume should be, and what considerations there would be for permanent protection of the urn.
Has anyone here done an urn build? and if so, can you give me any design pointers as, well you only get one shot at this kind of project...
