Joie de vivre |
A friend from our days living in Florida asked me to make an urn for their 15 y/o dog who passed recently. It is made from Norfolk Island Pine, native to Australia but grows in Florida and Hawaii do the tropical climate. The red spots are the limbs that grow to the center of the tree. I purchased a threading jig that I now use on all my urns. The top is now secure even if falls over.  | ||

That is absolutely beautiful, and an honor to your friend's loyal companion. I shall respect you until you open your mouth, from that point on, you must earn it yourself. | |||

I realize that is a gift, but how much would one of these cost if you were going to sell them? __________________________ "Trust, but verify." | |||

That is really nice. Is the lid a different wood? Let all Men know thee, but no man know thee thoroughly: Men freely ford that see the shallows. Benjamin Franklin | |||

Beautiful work, sig229-SAS. I have a sister that lives in north Georgia. Her good friend and neighbor owns a sawmill and has a number of hardwoods. I'm picking up a truck load this Sunday. I'm excited to say the least. Diligentia, Vis, Celeritas "People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf." -- George Orwell | |||
