    Steve, that must have been a tough commission. My sincere condolences to you and of course Stuarts family. All I can say is that the care and effort you have put into that is a fine tribute to your friend. Stuart couldn't have had a better skilled carpenter build his casket. Thank you for sharing, it is a very personal and touching video.

    Props on managing not only to make this but to make a video whilst doing it. The emotion is evident. Stuart was lucky to have you as his friend. I remember it took me months to be able to get to the point where I could make a small casket for my 4 legged friend without breaking down. There's no way I could have coped with doing this so soon. Always regarded you as professional and even though this process probably broke your heart you still managed it. Nothing but respect for you Steve.

    Such a beautiful casket. Obviously very difficult for you but also an honor to be asked and I suspect a bit of healing for you to help with your friend’s final wishes. My condolences to you and Stuarts family for your loss.

    This must have been a tough build. Quite an honour, and very brave of you, Steve, to make a video out of it to share on TH-cam, thank you so much for sharing.

    You are truly a "cut" above Steve and also a very kind person. May Jesus rest your friend's soul. And comfort you because of your loss.

    Thank you for sharing this. And sorry for your loss. In moments like these I tend to seek refuge in music. May I suggest Hannah James' 'The Carpenter'? It seems very fitting in a way. There are several videos of her performing the song on youtube.

    not an easy thing to do for the first project of the New Year, hope in time it adds by way of a tribute, to your memories of your friend.

The wood was so pretty, and I Love seeing the grain of the wood . You , My Dear Sir , are a Good Friend, and a Artist with Wood . I am sending My Condolences to You and His Family , from California. USA . Stay Safe, and May God Bless and Keep You, Safe in the Palms of His Hands !k ❤🙏🕊️

    Very moving Steve, and an interesting build. Only in the UK/EU would you need the timber to be FSC certified before burning! And no disrespect to your friend, but I’m sure we’re all wondering what the emissions might be from the ‘resident’ of the casket on their final journey…

    • @SteveMaskery
      @SteveMaskery  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That's a good q, Peter. But I am told that emissions are "virtually zero" because of the very high temperature and the fact that the combustion products are burned a second time. I assume it's on the same principle as a Rocket Stove.

    So sorry you've lost a good friend, Steve. You've made a lovely job of his casket. My query is, why did you complicate the design by adding a few degrees of taper, as opposed to making a square box?

    • @SteveMaskery
      @SteveMaskery  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      LOL! Seemed like a good idea at the time? I like the aesthetics of it, I just didn't appreciate the extra work when I set out.

    I'm curious, when you made your corners did you do 43-43 and 47-47 or 45-41 and 45-49?

    • @SteveMaskery
      @SteveMaskery  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Neither. They are rebates, not mitres.

    I'm big, tall, and fat. 6'3" @ 300lbs. I don't want to stress out those who may be around with the possibility that it might fall apart. (As for me, I'd be happy having my dead corpse being thrown in the dump.) How could I make a coffin for myself so that I know it would be strong enough to hold me and not fall apart? I'm not planning on exiting anytime soon - but you never know. Time to get on this project.

    can you use plywood or osb ?

    • @SteveMaskery
      @SteveMaskery  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You would have to ask your local authority, I guess it would depend on the emissions.

      That drawer gives me a bad feeling, since he speaks a different language, I better not see.
      TBH, I don't really understand.

      In this video he was giving a gift of love for a friend and he was feeling some strong feelings that were difficult to cope with. He was exemplary of the highest character that men can have. With respect, Russel, please give him a pass. If he should make a mistake, which I did not see, it should be overlooked in view of the bigger picture. Good job, Steve.
