Mail box post

Post by DXF »

Slid off the road on some ice and took out (3) mail boxes recently. Luck was with me as you can see how close I was to the telephone pole! Replaced one of them with this. The brackets are 16 gage SS and the carriage bolts and nuts are SS.

That bracket is a great solution to an age old mounting problem.
