- A good friend asked me if I could make a wooden urn for her mother with a playing card in the front. Here's how I did it.

Dear Alain,
An exceedingly well made urn which is dead gorgeous ( pun unintentional!). I am sure it's owner will really appreciate your expert labour. Very well done. Kind regards.
Very nice, Alain. I always enjoy watching your video's as I always learn something.
Nice work sir ... have a great weekend
Hi Alain, I just wanted to let you know that I haven't enjoyed a woodworking video as much as this in a very long time - if ever. Everything was fantastic. The content, the commentary, the camera work and the editing. Five stars my friend. Well done. 😊
Thank you so much. I wish everybody would see this that way, Like most people my views are in free fall. Most other YT channel don't edit like I do and keep saying on cam what they will do... But I must admit I have no credit for my editing, I've earn my living by being a TV news editor.. I have another video about this on the day I've retired
You Sir are a Master. Thank you for the great video.
Hahaha what an epic "hi" !
Fantastic work with the urn Alain.
It is to die for.
The urn is very secure. The occupant won't get out of there in a hurry.
lol
Yesss Très beau travail ;-) Cet accent est tellement Québecois ;-)
Merci
Excelente trabajo maestro, gracias por compartir sus conocimientos.
Saludos
Beautiful work!
Very nice work Alain.
Beautiful !!
Thank you so much for sharing your project- I plan Military flag display urns for local organizations. This video helped.
Excelente, Saludos
Nice!
Well done.
Thank you
It's been a while since I've received a comment on this urn, it's funny because Monday I delivered another one just like that to Annie, unfortunately now it's her father who got lung cancer. I had to watch the video several times to be sure I'm making it just like the other one. But instead of being a playing card it's a fisherman
Great project. I've been thinking about making one or two of those myself. You've given me some good ideas.
I like making urn, even if this sound creepy.... You can put a lot details or not at all it always depend for who you're making it. I'm glad I gave you some ideas.
Muito bom ótimo belo trabalho em marcenaria👏👏👏👏👏
good job and well done ehhh
Very nice video and finished project! May I ask why you did the lamination process for the bottom piece? Could you just cut a regular piece of walnut for the base? Thank you!
I wanted a very stable bottom and by laminating 3 plys of walnut, I made my own plywood, so the bottom won't move and possibly crack open the urn
Nice project. Am I right in thinking the contents are loaded from the bottom? I was expecting the lower groove to take the bottom of the urn.
Yes the ashes goes in from the bottom. If I remember correctly it was not deep enough. Sorry I did this 16 months ago... I was not at ease to post it just after making it.....
its very nice. The only change I would make would be the details on the card. Maybe a little blue and red paint before finish or something.
I wanted to keep it simple it's what Annie asked. And in the end if she was happy it's what mater.
@@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker oh I know you could have done a lot, interarsa comes to mind right away. I was just saying what I would have done differently.
Yes I did intarsia for my parents urns. I don't know if you've seen it? It's my forth episode several years ago... But I figure that an intarsia playing card wouldn't have as much details that a carved one. But you're right I could have gone several different ways to do this.
Always enjoy your videos - question - what are the dadoes for? - Relieve warping?
Dados are essentially a thick stack of saw blades, to remove a lot of material rather than just making a thin cut.
@@darksunrise957 Oh sorry - I know what they are - why did you make Dado cuts in the sides?
The ones in the bottom are a mistake, I intended to hold the bottom differently and I changed my mind along the way... But the one on top act as a slot to old the clams that holds the top in place I wanted to do the same at the bottom but I didn't.
@@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker Thx = keep up the fine work!
Very nice work! No mistakes this time? Especially like the playing card. Was her Mother Poker player or what?
No apparent one... In the beginning I intended to put wooden hold down like the top for the bottom, I changed my mind along the way so I have this dado on the bottom inside that has no purposes...
And Yes she was the president of her bridge club. It'S why Annie asked me to make a custom urn, obviously an urn with a playing card is uncommon....
Very nice. Question: how did you know how much space to allow for the ashes?
According to chart it's a bit less than one cubic inch per pound. So I make them a bit more than one cubic inch per pound and It was OK for all the urn I did
@@LgosseuxDbois-TheWoodpecker , Good info. Thank you very much for responding. Cheers!
Why did you re-saw and glue the bottom piece?
I was not sure if a solid piece would cup so I made sort of a 3 ply plywood, but thinking it over again, I only used a 1 thick piece for the top... So It would have been ok just tu use a square piece of walnut.
How are the ashes added?
by the bottom which is screwed to the rest of the box with brass screws. It's why I made a 3 plys walnut plywood for the bottom, so their will be no wood movement
Would have been very helpful to have finish dimensions
If you go to my web site (the woodpecker.net) in the plans section you will find the plan for it in sketchup format.
I made the other one two months ago, so the measurements are good. The only difference was a fisherman instead of a playing card. I also have two more urns plans on my website, my last video was another urn....
How does the user open the uRn ?
With the screws at the bottoms
