I really liked your idea, Jeff and decided to try it out. The result is

That’s pretty cool! It’s an interesting vig - a little more of an absurd
situation than Joe normally gets in, but good. I like the Time Twisters dishes
on the snail shell. Thanx for using my design - nice to know people like stuff
the I’ve done.

All I did was to turn the (black) 1x1x1 brick with stud on all sides so that
it’s true top stud points up. Then, I added 2 of these panels for stability:
This makes the base 2x2 with one stud on each side (to attach the mailbox
sides). Because the lowest level is now studs up, it is the perfect height to
have the attached walls clear the studs on the baseplate.

Good idea - I thought of that, but I don’t think I have any panels like that in
black. I’ll have to check further. I guess the studs in front would probably
obscure most of the black around the bottom anyways.

I used a roof tile on the back, and a 1x2 tile on the front of my mailbox.
Thanks again for the great idea!!!

I didn’t use a 1x2 tile because I didn’t want the door to open to far, and I
also liked hiding more of the hinge than a 1x2 would do. All the same, it looks
good. Way to go!
