Default 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. sorry I don't know of a pattern, but what if, you went to a place where they sold some, and got a idea from theres. or maybe a pretty box, with some personale fretwork on the outsides. just a thought. your friend Evie

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.
Shirley

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.
