Peter Zeppieri 8/9/1948 - 6/30/2018
This is easily the most meaningful piece I have ever built. I made an Urn for my Dads ashes from a walnut slab.
My Dad passed away last year on June 30th after a long battle with prostate cancer. He was my best friend and is the reason I do what I do today.
He and I worked together for our favorite charity, the Ronald McDonald House of Long Island .We helped in the renovation of the house over the years.. RMHLI provides the families of children in area hospitals with housing and meals during the worst times of their lives. It is a beautiful charity.
To learn more about RMHLI, and to donate in his honor, see the link below:

I knew watching this would be hard because it would remind me of my missing my own father. But when you got to the end and put his belongings in their I lost it. I'm sorry for your loss, your father would be very proud of what you made for him.

@RonSmits 5 лет назад

Glen Carolo I tear up every time I open it. Thank you.

@frankcurley 4 года назад

No talking, no music. Your father would have been happy to hear the sounds of the workshop one more time. A wonderful tribute you have paid to your Dad.

@willierobertson862 5 лет назад

Beautiful, I seem to have sawdust in my eye.

@MakeEverything 5 лет назад

Nothing wrong with a little sawdust in the eye every now and then... Thanks for watching

@baddogx69 5 лет назад

I LOVE How you made that for your dad! I cried like a baby when you put his things in the top for him. I think he would be VERY proud of what you did for him!

@colinstu 5 лет назад

That ending. 😭😭 crying here. I am not ready for my Dad's passing. Thank you for showing yourself making this.

@MakeEverything 5 лет назад

Thank you so much for watching.

@pebkacz 5 лет назад

I have my dads ashes in my workshop along with an end of life memory photograph of him hanging on my wall. This looks like a fitting and worthwhile project. Thank you so much for sharing. A dedicated resting place too.

@bell_nz8008 Год назад

OMG, I have just found this video because a very close friend of mine has just passed, and I wanted to make something beautiful for her. This is an absolutely stunning piece and i will take some inspiration from this video. Thank you very much for the vid.

@jukeman57 5 лет назад

What a wonderful thing to do with your skills. I love the idea of the preserving your dad’s things in the top compartment. Now generations of your family can see them. You are a good son. I just know your dad would be so proud. Thanks for sharing this.

@MakeEverything 5 лет назад

Stuart G. Australia. Thank you so much. I have planned to do a brass plaque for it as well

@cwh523 5 лет назад

@gt5.075 2 месяца назад

Oh boy. Got me crying over here. Amazing work.

@mopaysmozil 5 лет назад

My God, how beautiful. That last bit man, when you placed his belongings in the box made me cry. I am sorry for your loss but i'm pretty sure that part of him lives through you.

@Mike-mr3fq 5 лет назад

I am not crying.......... Very nice and very respectfully.

@padams788 3 года назад

You're Dad would be proud of you and your skills.

@samuelcruznieves2160 5 лет назад

Verry emotional video. I cry. My dad was a carpenter and a great dad to. My respect.

@eldritchthorne 5 лет назад

Such a stunning piece of work. I started crying once you put the ashes in. I lost my dad back in June and we had him cremated. This makes me wish I had taken up woodworking with him when he was alive. While I wasn't able to do something like this, I created a shadowbox of all his things that hangs over his urn box. God, I miss him.

@keithb3115 5 лет назад

Beautiful tribute. I too was OK till I saw the items placed. Now I’m wiping tears. Thank you.

@OldManYoungMind 5 лет назад

A Great Memorial to your Father. May he Rest In Peace. Beautiful and Awesome - I am sure Your Dad Would Be Proud, but more so of the Great Respect That You Have Shown For Him.

@Rams34dixon 4 года назад

As sons we aspire to always seek the approval of our Dad. I can assure you he is smiling on the fact that you have taken the time and care to make him something with your hands. It’s clear he meant the world to you as a father that’s what we want to be to our kids. Big bro Hug to you my man. 🙏 Hoping yo start a shop in my garage soon!

@flux6472 4 года назад

Beautiful, sorry for your loss. Losing someone is always hard, even harder when its a parent.

@drhender6943 5 лет назад

A beautiful and fitting resting place for a man who was obviously well loved. He would be proud of your work.

@marklevinson4490 Год назад

Your dad must have been a special person, as evidenced by you and your life. I am moved beyound words, at your craft, and you love. I feel the same about my Dad. Thanks for sharing this special moment with all of us.

@hmax1591 5 лет назад

What a loving gesture. Very nice. Very moving to see you place your dad's watch and other belongings in the urn. May he rest in peace,

@uncadeez 5 лет назад

This is a very loving tribute from a son to his father. Good man he is. I only wish I’d thought of this in preparation for My Dads passing. I had all of the tools and all of the skills. He must have been a good father and had taught these skills to his boy. God Bless your memories as well as all of our memories of our fathers. I miss my Dad every day. Thank you for this. Rest In Peace

@SuperCracow 4 года назад

A wonderful tribute to your dad and a fond remembrance of the times you spent together. I studied HVAC but the nitty gritty mechanical stuff is not taught in school. It all came from my dad. Thank you fathers everywhere. May those who have left us Rest In Peace.

@sootymccann487 4 года назад

What a beautiful tribute - your father would be proud. May he Rest-In-Peace.

@speshulkm 5 лет назад

Welcome to an ever growing club that nobody wants to join. My deepest condolences to you and your family. Now that the tears have cleared my eyes from you beautiful and moving tribute of love I need to say thank you. I lost both my parents within 2 years of each other and have had a hard time figuring out what to do with their remains. You've given me tremendous food for thought and inspiration. Thanks again.

@seansysig 4 года назад

Chris just found this very emotional memorial build. Your respect for your craftsmanship honors your Dad in a way that requires no talk as words would not do the respect your beautiful piece speaks. The attention to detail especially the compound miter moulding, choice of hinges, ⁰d the gorgeous wood. God Bless your Dad & your family.

@nn2380 5 лет назад

What a moving video. Your Dad is proud of you and he'll always be with you in all your projects. Thank you so much for sharing that. I lost my Dad 3 years ago and there isn't a moment that goes by that I don't think of him.

@mikearzabal6515 5 лет назад

beautiful box , I made one out of some old redwood barn wood for my little brother, when my mom died buried him next to her. GOD bless you and your family.

@manuelcalvillo4660 4 года назад

Beautiful work....so very sorry about your Dad, I am quite sure he is looking down and feeling very proud of his son. God Bless you and your family.

@mikecook8712 5 лет назад

I did the same for my dad's ashes, he passed 4-2-18. I know exactly, how much love, and emotions are involved.

@jimb874 5 лет назад

This shows the love and respect you have for your father. I'm sorry for your loss may he rest in peace. Beautiful tribute to him.

@terencegillespie6675 5 лет назад

I blew dad away with a leaf blower. A cloud. He drifted away into the woods chased by his dog. Amazing performance all the way around. Your box project is amazing too.

@jonnerztube 5 лет назад

Your dad must have been so proud of you, excellent work.

@kerryheimer1874 5 лет назад

This is truly the most wonderful tribute to your Dad. He’d be so honored, I’m sure.

@zetacon4 5 лет назад

The choice of wood and the workmanship is very fitting for a fine memorial box. I would only add gold leaf lettering on the front panel showing his name and the two dates. I like your design. My dad's body was donated for medical science research and when they were done, the doctor who knew him well, who was a member of that same research facility, took his asses and sprinkled them on the beach where my dad and mom used to enjoy so many walks together. I carry his memory with me all the time and we still enjoy the many pictures of him enjoying life and I like that more than I would a box or urn with his asses inside. But, you did a beautiful work and tribute with your lovely box. So tasteful and peaceful.

@kennethiepson4912 5 лет назад

I made my fathers as well. It was done with Maple for his love of baseball and Purple Heart for Pancreatic Cancer awareness which is what took him from us. Probably the hardest thing I’ve ever built . Good work.

@reginalawson8008 5 лет назад

Beautiful tribute Sir. I'm sure he would be proud. Sorry for your loss.

@johngibson2884 5 лет назад

My dad was with the Special Forces , in Vietnam . His group were known as" The Pioneers" and trained Indigenous people called Bong and Montagnards . He was with a group called MACV/SOG" Pioneers" When my dad passed 5 years ago , he had made arrangements to.be cremated ...1 Always the loving dad, he preplanned and had prepaid for everything ...never telling us kids ....but the Urn he never chose but instructed , in his will to me as executor, to chose the "most basic wooden one " because my dad was a woodsman and simple man . Guess what the model was called which had just been made by hand from a local woodsmith for the mortuary by a veteran craftsman? The Pioneer :) Thank you for sharing this as a gift of love brother .

I got tears in my eyes when the items were placed in the box. It reminded me of both my parents who died in a period of five months. The love seen in this project moves me deeply ...
