Slick Way To Get Mail Without Having To Walk To Mailbox
A friend of mine, Jerrel Good, came up with a slick way to get his mail without having to walk to the mailbox. He fastened the mailbox to a small cable that rides on a pair of pulleys – one at the road and one on his deck. He attached a used garage door opener to the cable.
