| I always fancied making my own coffin and using it as part of my living room furniture (drinks cabinet?) until it was time for it to be put to its intended use. |

| I'm the process of making my own bed coffin. Budge is a little bit tight, but I plan to have it in time by Halloween..as a present  I have a friend who already made his own coffin, which he takes out to lie in and he's giving me pointers. Always fun. |

| The coffin bed sounds great. The first man I ever fancied slept in an actual coffin - he turned my head so much it was practically back to front until he slipped on the ice one Winter and his air of mystery slipped away with him.
I saw him the other week and he has conformed. So sad _________________  Well, the Devil he taught us how to rock and then he turned us loose |

| Apparently coffins/caskets aren't too comfortable. |

| ^  Pine? Why pine..? I do hope you would stain it! Pine wood is ugly.  |

| Some people prefer the look of pine, although I think it looks about the same as the other light woods. |

| hmm could you make a king size coffin bed, and then pad it so that its comfortable. Of course every few years it would need to repaded. I like that idea, a cherry or oak coffin bed. |

| The hardest part that I can imagine about making a king size coffin is finding padding large enough to fit the coffin. You could cut a mattress to shape but I would probably present future problems. |

| A lumber yard should be less expensive. |

| That would be great to apply to this project.
Make your own coffin purse
I wouldn't use cardboard to contruct the purse. I'd rather used something stronger yet thin and light (not necessarily wood). |
