House-shaped street-side letter box.
Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)
Our local Postie says ” I have the best Letterbox in the whole town !! ”
It is also the easiest to see, from the street, and for anyone looking for me, I am easy to find as I simply tell them to, ” Look for the house-shaped letterbox !! ”
It is built from assorted scrap timber/lumber & heavy ply, while the roof is cut from a corrugated product called, ” Mini-orb ” which is a smaller version of the standard corrugated roofing iron which is a popular roofing product here in Australia.
I also cut the inlet slot at the front so it is wide enough for a standard magazine to be pushed through without getting stuck,- a must have for me as I subscribe to our Australian Woodworker Magazine, and I made the back opening wide enough for exactly the same reason.
Yes,- the back trap door can be locked,- but in this quiet street I don't bother
Enjoy the pics,- & who knows,- they might give the viewers ideas
