Small Urn

[triw51]

I did a pet urn recently and when one of the nurces saw it she wanted a small urn for some ashes she had of her brother. I did this out of shaggy bark juniper (used one as backdrop). It is 3.5 inches high and 3" at the widest. Finish is Capt. Eddies shine juice.
When the nurce saw it she cried and gave me a big hug. I guess she liked it.
C&C welcome and appreciated. Thanks For looking William

Is the top threaded?

No I did not thread the lid just a tight fit that "pops" when opened. I do not know how to thread wood yet but is on the to do list.
The nurse is going to put a bead of glue inside the lid to seal it.

Looks great. Really like the coloring and grain pattern. Great job.

Nice urn, and a nice purpose! I also would (no pun intended :redface like something similar eventually, as opposed to the silly $$ spent for commercial urns. Shoot, If I keep losing bone density, I might fit into a Rouge Cigar holder!!!

Very nice job. I have done several segmented urn's for family and friends using black PVC threaded inserts. The lids can be screwed on then"locked" on with a small amount of epoxy if the family wishes.

Do you have some pictures of what you did I would be interested in seeing them.
