I'm guessing most people are here because they searched DIY coffins, or something similar. Simple but beautifully done.

My grandfather owned several businesses, one of which was a sawmill. My mom was a depression era child and she remembers her father building coffins for people in their community who could not afford one from a traditional funeral home. My grandmother would make the lining for the interior of the coffin.

Good job

great show back in 2004 on frontline called "A family undertaking" about the home funeral movement, people making their own caskets, really great documentary. thanks

I’m getting ready to build mine I’ll use red cedar & blue spruce, for the hardware I know a blacksmith that would have a good time making it. It’s going to be fun. Thank you Sir.

They are great to sleep in in colder climates , you make them a bit bigger wider , and put vent holes in them , god I miss mine , very soundproof , best nights sleep ever , oh you make the side drop as well as the lid lift , wonderful job by the way ..

Beautiful casket. Something I always wanted to build for myself but my family got mad at me for wanting to do that.

Great job brother! Something tells me crafting pine coffins will become a necessary trade in the days ahead!

Great job. Simple is always the way to go. Thanks for sharing.

Awesome vid. I love the burnt wood exterior. I plan to go with the traditional diamond shape but, I really like your design.

Beautiful job!

This was less of how to build a casket and more of a look at this casket I made.

That looks like one cozy casket.

i love the end, reminds me of work. whole, gettin back out of a small space thing. subbed ur chanel.

you always amazed me with your skills!

Very nice!

Hello I love this coffin. Do you have a list of all materials and items used as well as a blueprint for the coffin ?

Dream project. Something built to last our life. Should be any truly Green voter's compulsory aspiration, a true legacy to make this world a better place that we leave behind. Always that perpetual challenge of keeping up with the Joneses. I hear the neighbour is planning to out do us with a cardboard coffin, even cheaper and even greener. Hope we can all live through that.

I'm planning on making a Coffin Coffee Table until that special day

I have subscribed to so many channels I don't have time to watch all of them but I am going to add your channel to my list after watching the shout out from dirtpatchheaven. I enjoy watching people that can make things from scratch.

Love this. Think we're gonna give it a try and make our own.

You did a fantastic job.

I'm starting gathering my wood and supplies to make my own casket. Enjoyed the details and simplicity. Thanks I would be proud to go to rest in his coffin.

Came out nice , do you have a link , or preference to hardware ?and/or do you have plans you reccomend

Awesome

Nice size for a big man . "Plugs" will fit perfectly

Nice work !!

Do you remember what the total cost for materials was ? I have a reason for my question. Thanks

I need an xtra large casket. My brother has asked me to make him a pine box casket. My sister is lining it with a Pendleton blanket.

I work with my firearm too. Carry on sir.

I built one for my ex but skipped the wood burn finish; that will happen anyway where she will end up.

How much for one coffin I’m gonna need one ASAP my friend

Job well done. Is this casket built for you or a family memeber or for sale or just a "to do" project? My best friend built a casket for his dad several years ago out of aspen. I got to help him with the apholstry & finishing details when i came home from one of my trucking runs. It was stained & polyurethaned & turned out very nicely. RIP Pops!!!

Great looking casket. Gotta ask…..what are you afraid of in your house to the point you gotta have your sidearm on you?

can you custom make one for a short guy, 5"7? and how much would it cost?

How do you support the bottom so that it supports the weight of the person without them falling out?

This is the first channel I have subscribed too!!

Not meant to get out of I reckon. Well.done video thanks

Do you have a full video and dimensions?

How many pounds can this hold. What specifications would be needed for 450 pounds.

Do you build those for people? How much would you charge to build one for someone to sleep in?

him: back to nap time me watching this so i can make one to sleep in: 👁👄👁

Looks nice with the finish. As for me, I'd prefer a stained finish and collapsible handles.

Nice! I wish there was more to see on the liner and how you slopped the bottom though.

What were your total costs excluding labor?

when are ye gona test it.

how strong are the handles whats keeps them in place and not breaking off

I want to know how to build one from the start. How can I be bored?

What is the total material cost?

Had a laugh at the outtake. Sure easy enough in todays world to end up in one, but a little harder to get out! Nice job. Was wondering if the handles were just bolted through the boards or maybe they don’t need to be reinforced? I’m no heavy weight but would like to make my own. Subscribed. Thanks.

My aunt wants me to build her one but she wants it really simple but I want to do a really nice one

Who is he building this for?

Do you have a link for those lock for the top ?

I live in a van and these days there are a lot of people living in their cars, for those living in this condition the most difficult situation is the hot weather. Isolated a van or car is costly, I have an idea to build a box bed isolated that I can sleep cool during the nights. Do you have any ideas to share that might work like a casket but only for living people?, ha ha ha!

I haven't seen that burned pine since the guys used to sell the welcome signs for people's houses at the flea market in the 70's.

Who was it for?

I just bought two burial plots for me and my wife today and I do Cabinetry work and I ask the funeral director can I build my own coffin he said sure if you got enough time so figure I better get get started them and build them cuz he knows I might die tomorrow

What's wrong with using plywood? 4x8 plywood? It must be easier to use individual boards. I'm using a 4X8 boards.

My divorced wife used to talk just like that. hahahahaha....

Should have notched, fitted and then sanded the corners for a stronger fit

How many hours of work, sir?

i still want one of these to sleep . im not a fan of my bed taking up space , something with a few inches of bedding that i can put a sheet on and take off to clean with enough room to roll on my side

Now your family saves money on a $12,000 coffin that you made yourself

Why not use 3/4" sheathing? It would be less work & would look okay and just as serviceable. The thing is going into the ground or into a blast furnace anyways. I suppose its 'tradition.'

Why is there a handle on the inside???!?

How thick does the boards need to be?

I think Coffin Coffee Tables should be something to be built 🤔 because things are expensive now

Get a 55 gallon can with lid and bingo

That's pretty much what I told my wife to be buried in.

I just heard that one needs a leak-proof barrier inside in some states. :-(

Anyone here during covid-19?

Do you remember an estimate of how much materials cost?

mush have been a cheap coffin. no cell phone plugs and coffee cup holders lol and does the burn come in pink lol

Bury my ashes under a 🍐 pear tree. Beam me up, Jesus.

Do it yourself, visit the Woodglut website and find out how.

Nice build but 18 in. Deep is a waste of material

guessur ready for the thing cause you dont give a damn bout a mask while ur burnin that thing! lol jk. hey it turned out boss! I dont know why this showed up in my recomended but I do love woodworking so thats prob it. peace man. :)

U should make undertaker coffin from wwe

Der Sarg auf dem Bild zum Video, sieht es aus als ob der Sarg Schubkästen hätte. Etwas unglücklich.

It needs to be inovated with inverter solar and motors

Damn thats way too deep, a waste of lumber,secondly the lid is not gonna support the weight of the dirt,cave in!

This is NOT a how to.

Caskets cost thousands of dollars. Such a ripoff. Better to build your own for a couple hundred dollars
