About TheBusBox
How it all started...
I started 'TheBusBox' off of an idea that I had thought of many years ago. I drew up some plans, bought a mailbox, and started painting. Well, if you know me at all, you would know that I am very picky about how my work turns out. I worked on that first mailbox for many hours. I started with a paint scheme and a lot of measurements. There were many hours spent looking online at buses, getting measurements from actual VW Buses, scaling those measurements down to the size of a mailbox, and then drawing out a rough sketch on the mailbox. I tried some different ideas with paints, vinyl, etc., and didn't get the results that I liked. I put that BusBox on the shelf and forgot about it. Oh well, it would have been a good Idea, right?
Six months went by before the nose of that BusBox poking out from the closet shelf bothered me enough to try again. I wanted a fresh start, so I bought another mailbox, and went to work on it. I did the same thing...started with paint, taped it all off for a two-tone lower half, and then got to work on the measurements of the windows, logos, lights and wheels. I went back to the internet, and took actual measurements, and brought them down to an accurate size on the box. With that box things were looking better, but still not quite right. I didn't like how it was turning out and eventually put that BusBox on the shelf right next to the other failed plan!
