Karma Time - with a sad twist - literally Winner Picked Updated Page One
Update: Winner SgtGold!! Email Sent


The sad part of the Karma is a urn, the 'twist' is a threaded lid. My idea was the treaded lid would allow access for additional pet cremains and to keep the contents secure from dropping or being knocked over.

This urn is turned by me from Ambrosia Maple, standing 7" tall and 5" at the widest and holds the cremains of about 30#. My original idea was for a pet urn but could also hold the partial cremains of someone special.

The rules are simple, minimum post count of 500, have a direct need for a urn and have an email in your profile. Winner will be picked via the Karmanator on Sunday evening. I will be traveling home from a art show so it may be late.

Please include me. I could use it for our dog Pepper. I've been looking for a special urn for her cremains. Thanks.

Wow, what a special karma. Several of our sigforum friends have lost beloved pets this year, this could be a real blessing. Thanks for doing this.

I have been holding on to my best friends ashes for the last 15 years. Woodruff was the best. This would be very fitting for him as he waits for me. Thanks and the urn is beautiful.

WOW! Don't include me, as I hope that I won't have a need for this for a few more years. I just had to say that this is beautiful work and when I do need something like this, I will be able to find one. It is truly beautiful work!

Also, thank you for your beautiful Karma, it is a beautiful resting spot for someone special.

A sad karma.

Not a day goes by, that I don't think about Pippy for a minute or two.

This would be a beautiful repository for her.

The cremation company gave us a little ceramic tile sort of thing, with her paw print.

Do not enter me, either.

But that wood turning piece is truly beautiful.

As a fellow turner, it gives me great pleasure to see such great work!!!

That looks like a great place for my Jack Russell, Spud, and part of me to spend eternity when the time comes. Please include me in this wonderful karma. May the goodness be returned to you many times over.

Max, George, and Sparkey could all use that as their final resting place. Count me in please.

Please add me, my father in law just passed a few days ago and as of right now the plan is to divide the cremains between MIL and 2 daughters, I know my wife would love this

I love spalted maple! (If that is what it is...)
Our kitchen cabinets are maple, and about that color. It would look great on our mantle.

Our beloved Jessie passed away about a year ago, and we have her ashes currently on our mantle in a cedar box that the vet gave us. This would be a most welcome upgrade.
Thanks for the most thoughtful and generous opportunity.
