What period do you want the coffin maker for? There could well be trade guides from the 19th century available at your local reference library. I would think that there was and is a small continuing demand for metal coffins, in order to seal in people who dided from highly infectious condidtions, and to satisfy transport requirements when a body has to be shipped internationally. Of course too, some people choose to be buried in metal coffins no doubt.
