Woodturning an Urn with Threaded Brass Inserts

This was a fun and very satisfying project. I found an online supplier of threaded brass inserts and was very pleased with their quality. It just seems that brass was far more proper to use than plastic for this project. I used walnut, birdseye maple and purpleheart and arranged the segments in an understated and respectful way befitting an urn. In other words, just a little color with nothing flashy. The interior space is 205 cubic inches. I hope you enjoy my video. Thank you for watching! --Dan

    Hi Dan, I am a 17 year co-worker with Erich Schroeder, Lynn's husband. He talked about you and sent me this link. Thanks for this, it means so much to Erich. I too am a woodworker but no lathe and not close to this skill level. Anyway, thanks for helping in a time of need.

    Hi Brian, I'm so sorry to hear about Lynn's passing. I found her obit. However, I'm still trying to connect the dots on this. I'm guessing that someone was able to use my "cut list" from the video to create this urn. Is this correct? If so, I hope it was helpful.

    Wow, amazing! Had never heard of Purple Heart wood before; how beautiful that is. Watching you create is very relaxing. Hope this question is okay, but do urns come in sizes? People do come in different sizes... It would be an honor to have one’s ashes in such a well crafted urn such as this.

    Hi Lynda, thank you. Yes, urns come in different sizes. Each pound is equal to one cubic inch of volume. Therefore, a 200 pound person after being cremated would require a 200 cubic inch urn.
