That's my question: anyone have plans for the "old fashioned"
wooden coffin? Particularly ones which are scalable for modern day
adults?

"Asking for a friend"

Just planning ahead.

Have you heard about Google? You might want to try it. "Coffin Plans"
will bring forth a slew of books, free plans, etc.

I'm trying to figure out what type of wooden coffin plan *wouldn't* be scalable.

And Youtube videos....

I believe Roy Underhill demonstrated the "old fashion" method quite nicely.

where will they be buried in some locales you have to use something
that is heavy and will not heave

or float

but if it is just for the open casket ceremony than you can really
go online and find the style you like


then discreetly measure the subject height and weight

if it is not for open casket ceremony get some thick plywood rip some
tubafours and secure the corners and make enough handles to match
the weight of the decedent and the strength of the pallbearers

maybe paint with team colors

if the decedent believes in the afterlife leave some room for their
tablet or tv and maybe six pack and other stuff like favorite hat
or snacks

Maybe include one of those little folding army shovels -
- just in case ... you know - the buried alive scenario ...
Also - for lid fasteners - do a google-image search for
" coffin nails " ... bet you'll be surprised ! I was.

Worse thing about my funeral is that I'm going to miss it by just
a few days.

Thanks - that's the hard ware, I'm looking for plans for "the box".
Something a little more up scale than "plain pine box".

Oscar LeRoy built one in his basement ...

Oscar: I’ve got a way with tools.

Emma: So do I. I married one.
