Scrap build using mostly red cedar and 1/4” plywood for the bottom. Burned it to get a worn look, and yes, it is janky on purpose. :)

Looks great! I think it's a coffin though, because it goes out at the shoulders. Coffins are spookier anyhow πŸ€™

I never knew there was a distinction, thanks!

Put a tiny skeleton in it and cover it with candy so it slowly gets uncovered as candy is removed.

Looks like a baby coffin 😬

Can you give dimensions or post another picture with something for scale, please? I can't picture the size of this beauty...

candy coffin filled

Sorry, Memmy only let me add one image to the original post. Really should have provided some sense of scale as you suggest. In the image above it is filled with candy (full-size bars). It’s only about 2 feet long, but I will add precise dimensions later.

Nothing to be sorry about, you obviously don't owe us anything! But yeah, this picture gives a sense of the perspective, very nice...
