| Need a Pattern Does anyone know of a pattern for an urn? I have a friend who died this week in a motorcycle accident and his wife would like me to make an urn. But as I have never seen a pattern yet for one I thought I would ask for ideas as to where to get one. Any Ideas will help . It will need to be something square shaped.

| Hi Shirley,
I'm sorry to hear about your loss, We just went through the one year anniversary for the loss of my brother.
Here are some pictures of the urn that I made for him, let me know if this interests you, I more or less made this up as I went along, but I could put it into words if you would like.
One thing to keep in mind is size, I had to measure the cubicle that the urn was to be placed in before I made it, I had noticed that some that people had bought were too big, and were actually placed on their sides
Tom

| G'day Shirley,
I'm sorry I can't help you with the urn, but I'd like to extend my condolences to yourself and family.
Tom,
That is a masterful piece of work and something I'm sure your brother would have loved.
My sympathy, although belated, to you and your family mate. |

| Hi Tom and thanks for the pictures, very nicely done, I did come up with a design, although I am not sure about the size still. I was told it has to hold 200 cubic inches and not being a mathmatician I just don't know what that measures out to, I have a box that is 6" high X 9"long by 31/2 " wide on the ends I asked a friend of mine who lost her brother about 1 year ago and she thought this was close. Can you give me the dimesions of yours? especially the inside.
Sorry to hear about your brother, I know being a relative it is much harder, this is a really nice person we lost and we are all in shock still. I don't have much time to do this so I am kind of guessing on everything. Your help will be greatly appreciated.

| Shirly...The dimensions you posted yield only about 189 cubic inches. Cubic inches are length x height x width and you'll have to use the inside measurements.
