Episode 6: Building caskets, urns is 'special honor' for master carpenter

  • Resumen

  • They call the lumber harvested from trees killed by mountain pine beetles blue pine. The beetles that burrow into those trees leave their marks in bluish gray, often mixed with greens, pinks and oranges. NBC Montana traveled to Vaughn to meet a master carpenter who values such wood as prized building material. Brad Opheim builds caskets and urns from blue pine. "I love my job," he said. "I remind myself of that everyday. It's a special honor to build the casket for a (family's) loved one." “Blue pine used to be a throwaway lumber," he said. "It was almost worthless. I just thought it was beautiful.”
