    British Phone Booths

    My church is located across from the Georgia Ports in Savannah. We have a seaman's ministry with two chaplains. One of the seaman's greatest needs in a port far from home is communication with loved ones. We have created a communication room in our church for seaman to communicate via telephone and email. The chaplains desired 3 phone booths that would be large enough to sit inside comfortably and be out of the ordinary. I designed these booths modeled after British Telephone booths but with folding doors necessary for the tight space. The carrels house desktop computers with a wireless network. The seaman in the picture is from the Ukraine. These booths and carrels have eaten up most of the summer, now I can get busy building a cherry entertainment center this winter.

    Nice job and clever idea, Robert. Reminds me of my two trips to Australia and very fond memories once apon a time when I was young.

    Well done...

    I've been planning on building the same thing. No real reason, it would just be decorative, and I think it would be a neat project.

    Good thing they are not painted blue, or Dr Who would be all over them.
