That makes much more sense, although I agree with rmksuf that I don't see why one man who makes a coffin can't also use it. If it has to do with being dead, then how does the second man "use" a coffin? If it has to do with probability or likelihood that one person would make his own coffin...that's irrelevant, as the sentence indicates affirmatively that the man who makes it doesn't use it, but that's not necessarily true as a rule.
