  • In this video, I show you how to build and install a mailbox post. I used mine for garden storage, but you could use yours for regular mail! Want to learn how to install a mailbox that you can put by the road or in your garden for storing your yard tools.

    You’re a legend! Someone hit my mailbox yesterday. Followed this video for several tips and got my new one made and installed today. Thanks brother!

    Nice video. I appreciate the small trim details of the chamfers. I had marked my post hole digger handles in six inch increments from the clamshell ends. It makes it handy for determining hole depth.

      I'm going out to my garage to do that right now! Awesome tip.

      The handles to my post hole diggers are steel, because I have a habit of breaking those cheap, flimsy wood handles. LOL

      Post hole diggers are 5-ft in length. With that, you will always know when you get to the 5-ft depth.

    Im about build a mailbox post for a friend and I have specs on paper based on my own mailbox but still curious as to your plans. You make it look easy so confidence is high. Did the mitre saw you used to cut the 45° have a 12 inch blade or 10 inch?

      You are keepin' my honest. I honestly thought I would have them up by the time someone asked me for them. Work in progress, I will get the plans up very soon. Especially now that I know someone wants/needs them. Thanks for watching!

      I don't know what size he is using, but I can tell you they are deck mate screws. I think 3 inch deck mates would do the job though.
