2 nights ago someone hit our mailbox, breaking the 4x4 post and damaging the metal box. They also donated a side mirror.
For some reason our mailbox has always had a target on it. A few times it has been taken out by snow plows. Once or twice in the past they've been hit by cars.
Nevertheless, I'd like to make something a little different from what materials I have. There are a number of logs in my stash that could be turned and used as a box and I have plenty of heavy lumber I could use.
Has anyone turned or built their own box and if so I'd love to see what you came up with.
