$599 for something IKEA would sell for $150 if they called it an
extended toy box? And how do you patent a running dovetail joint?
I'm sticking with the polished bronze and silver handles.

Now if you *really* wanted to 'go Green' {Plus a more economical use of
space} . . . a 'Post Hole' digger - the size used for telephone poles - is
the way to go !! Especially since the 'markers' used for the first year are
less then a foot square.

If you cut a circle of sod before 'drilling', you'll even have a ready-made
'natural' plug.

{and 'YES' !!, I'm of the faith . . . it even says so on my dog tags - plus
I intend to spend it all before I go. So it's either a 'Post Hole' or a
'Viking Funeral'}

That's because it's kosher. Can't get that at IKEA.

It was an inspirational post, if you make one, you're allowed to
use any kind of handles you want. I think it'd be neat to make one with
casters, and a piece of rope on one end, so you'd only need one
pallbearer.

Who cares?

Whadda ya mean, yer "of the faith"? What faith? Sure haven't
seent any sacrifices for the Woodworking Gods coming from out your way.
Ya heathen.

The preferred way to go is to not only spend it all, but be deeply
in debt too.

ff it comes down to a 'post hole', or 'Viking' funderal, I'd opt
for the Viking model, but at that stage, I doubt anyone is gonna ask me.
I believe my personal preference would be cremation, followed by
blasting the ashes out of a Civil War muzzle loading cannon. It probabl
will never happen, but in that case it'll give me something to bitch
about next lifetime.


I have the feeling you will be using up all of your personal bitching
allowance in THIS lifetime! (The counter doesn't reset to zero when
you drop off your twig.)

Cremate me, mix my ashes with some wood glue and saw dust, and use me
as filler on a wide variety of projects.
