Dog Mailbox Pop Up
 ✖  |
I'm sending along pictures of a mailbox gadget my dad came up with. It's a pop-up dog that lets you know when you have mail in your mailbox. It worked so well for dad, he thought everyone should have one so he suggested I take it home and perfect it. I made it so it would be easy to install without any tools. It's held to the mailbox by 1-in. rubber straps. When the mailman puts mail in the box, the Scottie dog comes up and can be easily seen from a window at 100 yards or from your car. To reset the gadget, there's a small 1-in. dia. wooden ball with a nylon string attached to the door. You simply close the door with the ball inside. When the door is open, the ball releases, letting the dog rise. !make both a spring-loaded model and a gravity model. Sells for $12 ($3 S&H). (Steve Bollinger, 957 W.
