Hi Glenmore
Not to be morbib but how about a match and a can of gas, in that way you only need to buy a putty knife and a dust pan ,and a jar maybe..
( a dust to dust thing)
Plan - Infant Casket,just make it a bit bigger for you

Just as a side note,,,, I was watching the best show on TV called how -it's-made and they showed how they made Caskets,,,I was amaze how cheap they are made...they look great on the out side but real junk const.on the inside...cheap 1/4" plywood ver.and some pine...and tons of junk plastic hardware....saw dust (chips) in the bottom for the bed and some nice silk material on the inside and you have a $5,000.oo casket..
