No prob, already got it covered.
JOAT I do not have the huge amout of faith needed to be an Atheist.
I want to thank everyone for their comments about this "problem".
Most suggestions where helpful and thoughtful. Not sure exactly what I would do, but it is clear that a bequest to a school and/or woodworking club for an auction (a idea that I just came up with!) to fund a community project might be the way to go here.
Again, thank you all for thinking about this and responding!

The blast furnace *is* a little problematic anyhow- after you've melted everything else down, there's still one left. Though maybe you should consider a huge trebuchet for your final project- even if you still bury the shop, you could have it shot into the hole.
On a slightly more serious note, the mortar isn't an unheard of idea. I have a friend who has my word that I will mix his ashes with shot and load him into 12ga. shells to take him hunting one last time when he's done for. I don't have any problem with it, and that's what he wants- so unless his family prevents it, that's what is going to happen.

Well, I suppose the trebuchet could be used for dispersing my ashes. Then it could be torched too.
All I can say is, don't shoot upwind, otherwise sounds reasonable to me.
