tomgobbler Report post Posted Saturday at 11:25 PM My uncle came to see me , he has cancer and the Dr.’s are giving him the long face - 😞 so he asked if ide build him , a plain old simple pine box . How do you say No to that ?? Elk antler handles and elk Burr inlay ….. I guess this qualifies for a plain old simple pine box ….. 9 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CatfishKev Report post Posted Sunday at 05:02 AM Wow, that's a thing of beauty right there. I'd much rather have that then the fancy chrome stuff, heck I'd be just fine with a crappy osb box with framing nails. Sorry still... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arizonian Report post Posted Monday at 02:20 AM Beautiful work! There have been a few "Pine Boxes" posted over the years and each one has been a work of art. We buried my BIL's wife a few years ago and I had 3-4 days to get her box to El Paso, so it was a pretty much a rush job. When we buried my BIL last year I had a few more days to work on it as the daughter was out of town. They are now residing side by side in Hatch, NM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Non-Typical Solutions Report post Posted yesterday at 03:24 AM I built my own back in 2010 right after both my parents passed! My wife been bugging me ever since and I just couldn’t stand thinking about it even though I have custom built probably 20 more since making my own! Two years ago we got our meager assets all lined up in a trust where my wife declared she was going to be cremated! So I bit the bullet and put this urn together for her! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
