Making a Modern Mailbox

I made a modern mailbox out of wood and steel that does NOT require welding. I used Quikrete Fast-Setting concrete mix set into a 8” Quiktube to make the foundation. I cast a 10” piece of galvanized 3/4” steel pipe into the concrete. The Mailbox is made out of 3/16” plate steel that I bent using an angle grinder and MakerBrand T-Bar Clamps. The oak doors have a magnet that sticks to a piece of 1” angle steel inside the mailbox. This piece of angle steel is attached with Krazy Glue Gel. I learned how strong Krazy Glue is at a recent event that pitted the worlds strongest man against Krazy Glue in an epic battle of Man Vs. Glue.
