Pictures to Follow Later - Fresh off the Drawing Board!
I decided to do one just a wee bit fancier than just a simple pine box with a lid... Decorative panels with wood decorations and stamped steel hardware. I also decided to change the dimensions slightly for Jaquelynne as she's quite a busty lass - Don't need the lid flying open at an inopportune moment because her boobs are stressing the lid - lol.
The New Dimensions are 180cm x 60cm x 60cm. I decided to install a slightly "Raised" lid this time around and cover all the outer panels with Black Canvas. For Strength, each end panel was made from 1 x 4 Pine glued together, then cut to height and width, then will have a simple zinc coated gate handle, and all eight corners fitted with flat corner protectors. For fasteners, I will be using countersunk concave head #6 wood screws with zinc coated concave washers. For an extra added touch, I Ran to Rona and picked up Qty 6 - 2 inch box hinges to attach the lid and a two mating pairs of snap clasps to help keep it closed, along with some assorted accent hardware. I think the Black on Wood look should be an eye-catcher with a bit of a retro look with the Canvas. The interior will be fitted with a 3 inch memory foam mattress covered with white satin and the same satin treatment to the sides, ends and lid with diamond ruffed upholstery fastened with the same accenting countersunk #6 screws with concave washers.

A DOLLar saved is a penny earned... Abe has my own custom made box on the drawing board. It will be a 6 sided Toe-Pincher version of a classic Old West style Undertaker's Coffin. It should be quite comfortable, and hopefully they bury me with my Guns on.Realrobotdoll wrote:That's a brill idea when I die my wife can sell the doll and then bung me in the coffin money saved
Incidentally, I just found out that Abe has ordered a full arsenal of Replica Guns from Western Rifles & Revolvers for all of us for an upcoming photo shoot he has under contract.
