Dakota Cemetery and Monument Services As a volunteer photographer for Find A Grave my heart broke at the number of neglected, damaged and tipped headstones while out photographing.

I decided to make a difference, to offer leveling, repair, and cleaning of headstones along with general care.

Okay guys what do you think, i'm thinking of casting this epoxy! Going to be 3D printing it all! The metal part of the fence will be printed in 8 pieces in black PLA. The stone walls will be printed in 8 pieces using marble PLA. Corner pieces and gate pieces will be printed in the white grantie with blue specs PLA! Burial Vault will be printed in silky silver. Casket will be printed in color changing brown and the hardware printed and glued on with silky silver. The dirt pilee will be printed in white then going to spray epoxy it and coat with finely ground coffee! Grass is going to be synthetic moss chopped up in the food processer.

I'm looking at putting it all in an 8" x 8" x 3" mold and doing a slow crystal clear epoxy pour to preserve everything and keep it in place. I think this would look pretty badass as a 3D model in epoxy! Don't just read and like this post, jump in and give me your two cents. What would you do different, what would you include?

Tomorrow is never promised, live each day like it’s your last, because it maybe.

Not all burial vaults are created the same, that’s why I only trust Wilbert burial vaults for a true aid and water sealed vault.

Some random guy sent me a message saying to post something not so morbid and original. I finally got my daughter a CapCut subscription that she has been begging for, and all the sudden my SnapChat starts to explode so here yeah go, this is what CapCut says we would be if we were action figures. I guess her creating creepy action figures is better than dating, so we will consider it a win from a mom prospective - lol.

Addisyon has been busy mastering the art of epoxy, her results have been so stunning, we plan to offer flower preservation and custom keepsake services. Using care, attention to detail, and superior craftsmanship Addisyon has been able to create breathe taking family keepsakes that never fade, wilt or fall apart. For us, nothing goes to waste, she had some clear epoxy left ovre after creating a cross and decided to add some color and glitter to create some keychains to pass out to her friends.

More details coming soon! If you have flowers from a funeral, wedding, or other event you would like preserved let us know, we are looking for test projects to fine tune or methods and materials before we dive in.
