Veneer Stone Mailbox
I would like to know the step-by-step procedure using Tennessee fieldstone to do this project. I have a place to practice this before actually selling my work.

Does anyone have a link or advise to share?

Thanks in advance.

Check with your local codes or dept of Trans regarding stone mailboxes. Many times they want only wood posts near the road that can break away when a car hits it.

Around here, there are plenty of stone, brick mailboxes. I've wanted to do one at my house but with the road I'm on, it seems like it would be an invite for glass bottles.
