Hello @Kezzie 

Thank you very much for sharing your fantastic hardwood sleeper letterbox. That assembly looks very strong and if you maintain the timber with regular staining it should last quite a long time.

Hi Kezzie. Letterbox looks fantastic. Exactly what I want to do. Could you tell me please the height (above ground) of the tallest sleeper, and how deep your foundation is.

Thanks in advance

Hello @PoppyFix (Greg)

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's wonderful to have you join us.

Let me tag @Kezzie to make them aware of your kind words and questions. I would approximate the tallest post to be at least 1.5-metrs tall so that the letter box is still within reaching distance and you won't have to bend over too much to get the mail. But let's wait for Kezzie to confirm the actual height.

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.

Eric
