Hi Sudoers:
I'm building an alpha prototype of the donation apparatus I proposed on
Aug 31 (see included email below.)
By any chance does anyone have any 3" PVC couplings lying around? I'm
specifically looking for a 45° coupling like this:

But will take 90° and 30° couplings and whatever else in 3" PVC you've
got around, including straight pipe.
LMK what you've got.
Sincerely, -Peter

Subject: Pilfer/Theft Proof Money Donation apparatus for Free Store
(and Sudoroom)?

Hi Sudoers:
Now that the Free Store has to pay rent: can we design some sort of
donation apparatus for them that can accept money but is not easily
pilfered? My initial thought is some sort of large free-standing but
heavy plastic tube structure (e.g.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorade_box) but I'm open to other ideas.
Bonus points: add some sort of fun sound as in this youtube video:

We could make these for sudoroom and the fabric and textile area too.
Anyone else interested in working on this? -Peter
