It caught my eye how they were able to make the bend in the wood.

Yeah but you don't want to go for a sail in this one Andrea!

They look like the ones they built back in the western days a long way from the ones they have today that cost so much money and to me that is all a waste just to put in the ground i would rather be cremated.

Those old carpenters were true artists with wood.

Interesting technique. Also must be easier to break in case of emergency

This does look like an old western casket but I don't understand the lines where the shoulders would be??? They must have soaked the wood in something in order to be able to curve them like that.

Nice workmanship – I think it would float :)

The same technique is often used to make small jewellery boxes too!

I think they wet the wood and then placed on a hot piece folding it into shape over it. At least they do that to make guitars.
