Freeloading Social media influenza
OK, not really woodworking, but I don't know where else to ask.
Just been down to my tennis club to find the guest fees box has been ripped off the wall. It was a fairly Heath Robinson wooden box, and the back(which is screwed to the wall via wall pugs) was fixed to the sides with four woodscrews, about 5mm of which went into the sides, from what i can see, so I doubt that it took more than a casual kick to release it.
This box was mounted on the wall, in the lobby of our clubhouse(which, sadly, is sometimes left unlocked accidentally).
Anyway, long story short, I need to find(or possible make) a replacement. It should never have a vast amount of money in it, so it's not worth going overboard, but I don't seem to be able to find anything suitable. The closest I've come so far is lockable outside mailboxes, but these are too big, and the slots tend to be so big as to allow fishing attempts. We only need to be able to take the odd folded or rolled up fiver or a handful of pound coins.
Any helpful suggestions appreciated.
