Woodturning - The dreaded project what took me over a year to finish

Introducing my breathtaking Blue Epoxy Resin and Australian Mallee Burl Urn, a true masterpiece of craftsmanship and elegance. The unique combination of these elements results in a one-of-a-kind urn that exudes both beauty and sophistication. I meticulously sand each surface to 3000 grit, ensuring smoothness that is unparalleled. Total of 7.5kg or 16.5lbs of epoxy resin was poured in a single go.
To ensure a perfect fit and add a touch of luxury, I have incorporated a brass threaded insert for the lid. This not only guarantees a secure closure but also enhances the overall premium look and feel of the urn.
To protect its beauty for years to come, we apply several layers of clear gloss lacquer. This finishing touch not only adds depth but also provides durability while enhancing the natural luster of the wood and resin.

  • Thank you so much David for your thoughts, artistic visions and putting up with me for a year. You have produced a magnificent urn for me one beyond what I had visioned. It truly has been a pleasure working with you.

  • Hey David. Just found your channel. I understand the pain you were in dreading this project. I've been dreading doing something special for my dad's ashes for almost 3 years now. Seeing you make this, gave me a great starting point and the fire lit under my backside to get started. Thanks and my condolences

    • Thank you so much 😀 Firstly, I was always against making an urn. Just because what they are for and I did not feel it connects well with me and what I do. But Carl described his idea to the project so well and looking at his passion and desire about the urn made me want to do it. I knew it will be challenge from the size, brass threading, white swirls etc. So I kept planning, testing and waiting for some other stuff and time flew by.
