As for that casket, Many of the people I see around here would need to alter them a bit..... -- Steve W. |

I know that it's done right, by someone who loves them. I don't know if I would term it "rewarding", but it would be comforting for me to surround my loved ones with my own handiwork before putting them to rest for the final time. -- Tim Wescott Wescott Design Services http://www.wescottdesign.com I'm looking for work -- see my website! |

You do not want people to say "here lies John Smith, expert woodworker, he made his own coffin". And then during the funeral the coffin comes unglued, breaks down and Mr. Smith falls down to the ground. Truly an ignominious end to one's woodworking career, a failure in life that is so final that one cannot recover! i |

Yeah, roast me and toss me ashes to feed the ocean fishes. I have the "spare parts" option on my drivers license so they can harvest any usable parts to save another HUmon, if possible.
