Can I build my own casket?
As a matter of fact, you can, although as a matter or practicality, it may present some storage challenges for you. You might consult a funeral home or cemetery for correct outside measurements as the casket will ultimately need to be placed into a burial vault, grave liner or mausoleum crypt. Keep in mind, when making caskets a long time before their intended use, that the measurements of the intended occupant may change.
