Sharpening weekend for me.
All weekend? Didn't you just have a sharpening day last week?
I mentioned some time back that I had spoken to the director of a crematory here in Boise about building some urns for them to place on their display shelf. I visited with him this morning and he was more than accommodating, even showing me some of the items that another craftsman in the area is supplying. I got some measurements, talked about his mark-up, and when I could have product to him. He told me the locally made boxes were his best selling items and he would be happy to take what I made - first on consignment, but then to purchase as inventory should my design turn out to e a good seller.
It's a small step, but an important one! I'll do a cleaning in the shop this weekend and start building a pine prototype. I promised hims several urns for display in two weeks.
