I've looked into this as I had a phase where I wanted to bequeath my various bones to my friends, family, and enemies after my death.
The best way to clean a skeleton is with dermestid beetles. They are most commonly used at natural history museums for preparing animal bones, but I couldn't find any that would work with humans. Your best bet is to find a private entity with experience in preparing bodies for scientific study. Alternatively, you could source the beetles yourself - this would likely take longer as you need quite a few, so storage will be a concern, but you wouldn't need to worry about transport which has more legal considerations. Once the beetles have done their work, the bones themselves keep quite well if stored properly - no different than animal bones.
Unfortunately the whole processes seemed cost prohibitive so I'll probably just ask to be dumped in a forest somewhere

Lol dude just came home from work, it's his uncle

if I had relatives interested in making art from my corpse I'd let them in a heartbeat. the death industry is highly wasteful and overwealthy from exploitation

The death industry is rich from all the human leather hats they sell.

I wonder: was it a sign of respect towards the uncle or was it an insult? Or neither, just cool?

I wouldn't mind being a guitar when I die

Reference from a game called Rimworld where you can butcher corpses for human leather. Quite profitable tbh, if only people stop complaining about it.

ohhhh then somebody here will get it. I might try it, Frostpunk actually left me pretty thirsty for more city management games and honestly having a human skin hat only sweetens the deal

He wasted such an epic guitar build with basic strat style neck.

Yes but imagine playing pop on it as a session guitarist, that would go even harder for sure

Would be even more badass if that leather jacket were made from his uncle’s skin!

I helped maintain a dermestid beetle colony that was used by a natural history museum to prep specimens for display.
They are surprisingly easy to care for. It was just a large wooden box full of ripped up paper egg cartons. Drop a nice head in there and mist the cardboard with some water. Soon you have a nice clean skull. When not using it, just mist the cardboard once a week. The beetles just hang out between feedings.
For science purposes only, folks
