special turning

[bowl-basher]

Hi All
This was a special request from my late Brothers Wife. My brother requested that his Ashes were to be scattered at sea, while this was done his wife wanted to keep a small portion and asked me to make a special small urn that did not look like an urn. this is what I came up with the timber is Camphor Laurel and it stands 400mm high by 60mm dia the insert is turned from a solid 60mm brass bar
the finish is sanded to 600 sealed with N/C sealer,EEE and 3 coats of shelawax A sad thing to do and a few tears help with the polish but I was honered to be asked

Nice work bb. I can see why it would be very heart wrenching to do but very rewarding in another way.

A sad but honorable task, and well executed.:):):)
