Mitered
Mitered
Our mitered urns are designed to present a trim, neat appearance. We use lock miters in the four corners. This technique is very strong, but hides the end grain. Access to the inside of the urn is thru a panel on the underside.
Our lock miter line can be constructed of any available wood. We can easily acquire red and white oak, maple, walnut, cherry, ash, cypress, pine, mahogany, padauk and purpleheart. We can also use any wood you would like to contribute. This might include wood from a special tree or property, old barn or house wood, planks from a naval vessel or anything else that might be meaningful. Mitered urns may also be made of Southern live oak when supplies are available.
Our pricing is for basic pine. Using hardwoods may increase the price slightly although given the small size of an urn, the increase is not usually too significant.
The urns pictured are 9x6x6. This gives an interior size of 200 square inches. This would be suitable for a person who had weighed 200 pounds. Since each urn is custom made, we can accommodate whatever size you need.
Photos of lock miter joints under construction can be found in our journal section.
