    Default redgum sleeper mailbox

    Hey guys,

    A friend has asked me to build a redgum sleeper mailbox, im sure you know which ones Im talking about, the sleepers are cemented in vertically at different heights, etc. Kinda looks rustic. I have seen one where it looks as though the sleepers were all put in, then the hole for the stainless mailbox was cut out of the structure at the end. Does anyone have any advice and tips on how to make one? I mainly work with aluminium and glass so im not very familiar when it comes to working with wood.

    thanks,

    Suggestion only.
    Obtain letter box first and fit to timber. Then put timber in ground.
