re: Urn #2

Splintergroup- you are the best!  You should publish an "answers to frequently asked woodworking questions" book

I like this for the top, but the bottom will need to be attached later, after the cremains are placed inside so the frame idea might be more workable.  I hope to pick up one of the temporary plastic boxes tomorrow so I'll have better confidence in sizing the wooden box.

Again...thank you!!!!
