Modern Stainless Steel Mailbox
This modern mailbox looks like an envelope! This piece is handmade, handcrafted, and handfinished in Canada. “No off-shore mass production, only real and honest hours of hard work and elbow grease in a local workshop, each mailbox finished one by one.”

Mailmen will hate you. Trust me. These types are the worst to burst-fire mail into.
Too bad for the desperate copyrighting.
Especially “No off-shore mass production,
only real and honest hours of hard work
and elbow grease in a local workshop”.
So he’s saying real AND honest hard work
is not done off-shore??? I have the feeling
that many of these “off-shore” workers
work harder, longer hours for less pay than
this guy will give them credit for. And they
could certainly produce more than 10 mailboxes
in a month and a half! I don’t mind that this guy is
trying come off as a humble Norman Rockwell character
quietly tinkering away in his workshop with sweat and
elbow grease making high-end designer mailboxes for
$150 a pop, but slamming off-shore production just
makes him look scared and petty.
Ted, I actually interpreted the copy as “not machine-made” because it was prefaced by “mass-production”.
By the way, how do you know “he” is not a “she”. I’ve been a welder and metalsmith for 20 years, and to this day men come into my workshop, look at me, and then ask to speak to the boss. When I tell them it’s actually my shop, they suddenly become skeptical about the quality of my work.
Try to be a little less cynical and a little more open-minded.
