    Hi folks,

    I have this witch. She's about 5'9 110lbs and... *hit by frying pan*

    Ouch!

    I mean she's a prop. About 2 feet tall with a round base that holds 2 D batteries just to get a feel for the dimensions.

    I would LOVE to put her on the brick mailbox but my better is afraid the witch will be stolen even if its just during trick or treating.

    Does anyone have any ideas on how to securely mount her to the mailbox?



    Cliffs: got a 2 foot witch. Want to mount her to the brick mailbox. Need ideas....

    You could use some plastic anchors and screws. You will need to get a masonary drill bit, some of those plastic wall anchors they usually come with the screws, and will tell you what size bit you need for the holes. Now don't try to drill in the brick but drill into the mortar joints if your using a regular drill use a tapping/pounding motion to "chip" your way into the mortar, If you try to drill usining constant pressure you will burn up the drill bit and not get very far. You can leave the anchors in there and just remove the screws and use it again next year. Best of luck
