I was contemplating making a coffin-table for a woodwork project to raise my average marks.

I am drawing up plans for a coffin table especially for you right now!
Along with the coffee table, I might design other things like end tables and bookshelves.
It will look good, but it will be easy to make for a student or anybody that isn't a master craftsman with access to a monster woodshop.
To anybody reading this thread: I like drawing up little diagrams, if you want me to draw something for you, please ask.

The lack of red velvet is a deal breaker.

Okay, here is something for you Jack. It is a simple easy to build coffin shaped coffee table you can build fairly easily. I whipped the drawing up in around a an hour. I hope you like it.

That's actually pretty cool, Opteron, and also very tempting.

Thanks! I think I should redesign it so it is more table like.
It would retain that diamond shape but not function as a chest.
What good is a chest if the lid is covered by magazines and coffee cups I ask you. I am annoyed that I made this complicated. I will draw some new stuff.
Sorry, I get obsesive with my own handywork.

Giving it pull-out drawers would be helpful, but that gets more complicated.

Hmm, the problem with the article is it doesn't give a link to the place that sells the coffin couches. Does anyone know who sells them?

They're interesting, but I wouldn't get one even if they were cheap.

By the way, the Green Lantern couch looks BADASS.
Just sayin'.
The cow hide one is rather amusing.

Quite morbid yet elegant at once. Elevates the common casket to a work of decorative art. Thank you for sharing this!

There is a bottle of vampire wine advertised on that site that can come in a coffin itself. I was surprised to see it, my mother's best friend brought a bottle of that randomly over to our belated new years eve party. It actually didn't taste too terribly bad, and so far, I've not found many wines that I would partake of.

They look really cool and would be ok to sit on but because the back is so low I doubt it would be a very comfy couch
