I'm trying to work up the courage to knock on the owners door to find out where they purchased it . They have a modern brightly painted red & chocolate rendered house so we have a bit in common I think Re: LETTERBOXES!! SHOW US WHAT YOU'VE GOT? 42May 02, 2008 11:20 pm LOL what Dy, no pics????

Won;t cost to much to have made Just ring any of the stainless manufacturuers and they will make one up for you - just be sitting donw when you get the price. lol I checked out the price and it's around 500 (not too bad considering). Main issue will be getting them to vary it slightly so we don't have the same one as the ppl up the street Re: LETTERBOXES!!

I can post of photo if you are interested. PS....I painted the planter with a moisture barrier....no idea what it was but the hardware/paint shop can help. mmm....donuts Homer Simpson 1956- Links: Site Costs Ready Reckoner | H1 Addiction Medical Advice | Château TDL: The Backyard If so what were the "special circumstances" under which it was granted?
