Thanks a lot Muffy, scream1973, bodybagging, evilbob, hallorenescene,13Mummy, GothicPrincess, perdidoman and Frenchy for the compliments. I'm just glad I'm done building my first coffin, then if I build another one it will definitely be easier.
evilbob--My garage isn't totally uncluttered. You'll notice I didn't take pics showing the WHOLE garage.
GothicPrincess--Thanks for the compliment on the moulding. I had never used a miter box before I built my cemetery columns last year, so I've had a bit of practice. Even still, to match the angles on the coffin I had to make a few patterns out of cardboard for cutting the moulding.
13Mummy--I plan to put an animated skeleton in the coffin that I bought from K-mart during the after- Halloween sale. It lies flat until activated, then sits up and turns it's head to the left and speaks. I'll post a video of it when it's finished.
Thanks again, everybody!!
