Port-o-rally boxes



Here are pictures of the first Port-o-rally box, a prototype made out of old corax (corrugated plastic) that I scrounged up after the last election. This model is a sorrowful-slice-of-roadside-Seattle, constructed from three over-the-hill election signs held together with duct tape and drywall corner bead. Amenities include:

  1. an old handle from a discarded guitar case (Qwest Stadium/Seahawk's game special)

  2. a purple carrying strap I got out of a dumpster at Seattle University (the security guards chased me off after I got it)

  3. a Velcro (space-age) nylon door attachment that comes from a tossed out portable diaper changer that I found in the alley 1 block south of Bread of Life Mission

  4. a used umbrella Lela needed to get rid of, with a nylon-webbing (REI) holder

  5. two nifty metal sign stakes on the side, $1.00 each from Home Depot
    The protest signs are glued on corax so they can be mounted on detachable handles or on road-side step stakes.
