GIVE and TAKE BOXES

Post by willfixit » Mon Jun 04, 2007 11:11 pm

:D
The one thing I musted this last year was the give and take station where you go and leave something you do not need or a surprise! and take something you see that you might need. So can some of you carpenter types build up 3 doz of these the this year, we have added more rings to the city this year so we will have more square miles of space to put them... what do your all think...I still have this little rubber finger bug from 1999, its kind of cool
Thanks all
let me know your thoughts :idea:

Years two and three for me, we did a gift rack outside camp, which was great fun, but tended to collect trash on Sunday. Of course everything got dusty as heck and we had to put up a little "No food gifts" sign. This is one of the ideas which gave birth to the Home for Wayward Art. Which still collects trash on Sunday, but no open food.

Wouldn't mailboxes work? I get the concept, but didn't see the boxes so am not sure what they look like. Sounds like a pretty basic woodworking project. No, I am not volunteering, I have the Home to wrangle.

I have seen lines with clips.
Some interesting art.
Sort of a give and take fence.
Little things in bags.

It would be a shame if I had to resort to self-deception to preserve my faith in objective reality.

Heya willfixit...

You shouldn't be afraid to try something, even if you don't have expierience with a hammer or saw. Why not dive right in and build them yourself?
