Thank you!!

Great JOB and greetings from Spain! I envy you because in my country we have not foam like yours and when I founded something similar, it´s very expensive. Here we have to use another materials, like MDF or plywood. THANKS FROM SPAIN!!!

Good job

Omg you're gorgeous! Thanks for the tutorial! ❤

Bonus: should help for storage, as you can put light weight things inside

Ok...that came out really good!

You did a hell of a good job. Looks great. I had doubts at the beginning but you sold me on this. I need a coffin to lean next to my dracula and this will be perfect. Thank you so much

It really looks fabulous. Thanks for the great idea for next year!

If you build it, use the 2”. I had the 1” so that’s what I used but the 2 will be so much stronger! Thanks for your comment.

You did a Great job 👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾 thanks for sharing . I'm going make one and do a test run by adding monster mud on a scrap piece of foam board before painting .

Great job!

Thank you so much

This is very nice. I would suggest using some sandpaper to take out the shine from the paint. Just very lightly

Looks GREAT! The kids want to do something similar. How did that hold up to the weather?

I was wondering the same.

I was originally looking for a Coffin Shelf to make that wasn't wood for a cute all year or just Halloween prop but now seeing this I really want to make this for my Bartholomew (my skeleton) to sleep in. Though adding a bit of creepy cloth on the inside would definitely complete the look thanks for the tips!

Excellent job!! Someone stole my coffin off my lawn last year and now I have been trying to find a new one and they are much more expensive than what I originally paid for and super flimsy. I have been trying to find simple building instructions to make my own coffin. Thanks for the video!

Outstanding job! Can you please tell me about your hinges and how did you secure them to foam? I'm making a rectangle box for a casket and want 3/4 of the lid to be open.

Great job! What type of glue did you use to hold the foam pieces together?

What about rain or moisture?...how do you protect the foam from damage or mold?

Wow, that looks really good! How has it held up?

Thank you!!! Very well, I wish I could add a picture, I just put it out for Halloween. But 2” foam would have been sturdier. But it still looks the same!

damn you are beautiful !!!!!

I use a wire brush to drag on the foam for “wood grain”. Works great. You can adjust your pressure for added depth.

Great Build! I use a jigsaw with a fine blade or my table saw to cut my foam. I also use Gorilla glue and decking screws to hold everything together for a stronger hold. I made tomb stones last year and used a chain to add indents for highlights when I painted them. Will have to give this one a wing! Thanks!

You are awesome! I was just looking for something like this! I went to the store and saw the cheap popup coffins that are like popup fabric laundry baskets and couldn't bring myself to go there... not for $35!!! I love your creativity and how much you made it resemble wood! Can't wait to try this!

Anthony S good luck! Buy the thicker boards, it will be even stronger. Wish I had. It’s still great but thicker would be even better!

This is awesome, I want to make something similar for Halloween this year. Can I ask how you hinged the door so it would open? Did you use real hinges and just glue them, or fashion your own somehow?

Carly Crowley I glued on real hinges. Good luck, post pictures!

Andrea .. you said you glued these Pieces together but I see tape in your video. How did you do this and what did you use? I don’t see the tape on the outside . Thanks

Andrea can you message me somehow on fb or email? Just some questions about the coffin. Like how many sheets of foam did you use and how many inches did you add on?

Andrea Andrea on fb, message me. I typed your name in but there were multiple Jon Wassils. I bought two entire sheets and used about 3/4 of it. If you can wait till tomorrow I can send you the measurements of mine. I’m not home right now.
