Does anyone in NALUG have any trans-clear thin walls of any size? I only need to borrow a few for the elevator bins and I own absolutely none... And, James, I hope you just didn't sell some of these. :-] -- John (remove the obvious to reply) (24 years ago, 18-Aug-00, to lugnet.org.ca.nalug)

I have maybe 2 or 3 of the 1-high clear thin walls, but that's it. As to mailboxes, I've just check and I definately have 3 grey and 2 black. I almost certain have more, but if so, they're in unsorted piles, and will take some hunting. James (...) (24 years ago, 19-Aug-00, to lugnet.org.ca.nalug)

First, they are mailboxes, NOT safes! John, how large an opening do you have to cover with the clear pieces? I have quite a few of the thin wall pieces in clear, 4 wide 3 high (26), 2 wide 3 high (18) and 2 wide 2 high (8). These are the same type (...) (24 years ago, 20-Aug-00, to lugnet.org.ca.nalug)

(...) I would not call them safes for two reasons: 1. that is a fairly recent use of the part, it is much older than the wild west sets 2. how many safes have you ever seen that have a slot almost large enough for a person to stick their hand into?
