Want to sell firewood through an honesty box out of an old lpg cylinder filled with ballast and square tube for the box itself.
I'll make the box so heavy that equipment is needed to pick it up probably with the door on the bottom so that you have to lift it to empty it.
What is denser? straight set cement or concrete? Could do lead if I had enough.

You should use steel.

A revision of the design in my mind has a square tube in a gas bottle and the bottle is filled with concrete.
I've wipped up a quick design

Retard. The board will claim niggers and vagrants who steal from you.
I have no advice other than growing up in a town of 500 people census-verified, with no niggers abound.
White nigs will steal the same.

Trust-based society exists when your community isnโ€™t smoking meth or isnโ€™t black based.

You will be stolen fromโ€ฆ Your lockbox could be fed into the earth by a meter, And you will get 80% of your return. But 20% will always steal, white, spic, black, whatever.

>You will be stolen from
yep. i live in a pop 1200 town an hour from a left coast liberal utopia metro. theres a lady out of town a few miles on a backroad that sells cut flowers and nicnak goofy shit in a self service stand in front of her house. about 2x a month she gets ripped off and posts the camera picture. 9/10 times its mid day and some random faggot fully decked out in expensive spandex bike gear on a $5k road bike. obviously someone that could afford $10 shit and not even some trash meth head type. citiots think everyone outside the sphere of streetlights is a country bumpkin rube meant to be taken advantage of

I accept the risk of the firewood being stolen as I'm sourcing my wood from cleaning up fallen wood so I only loose out on labour. However I can make it disproportionally hard to steal the money box.
If theft happens too much sales will be by appointment only.

look how they do pay boxes at bumfuck egypt campgrounds. theres probably a usda forest service build spec sheet out there for the dimensions. its like a piece of 8" x 3/8 wall square tube with a door welded inside. being youre asking here you probably arent equipped to build it though
here i googled it for you

I think I'm right.
Now to the initial question, is concrete or straight cement denser?

Don't have the means to cast iron right now.

Make it electronic and the ability to use apple pay, cashapp, or paypal, probably should add venmo too. Use 2 solar cameras that face each other so that they will be in view of each other. Use an NFC sticker, QR code, whatever.

NTA but if you have any kind of exposed electronic interface left alone some dingus will vandalize it.
Remember what happened to payphones back in the day.

Probably would just have payment details listed.
Still would have to deal with vandalism, despite being half way to woop woop.

It's kind of hard to say but one of my neighbors has this: It says "PAY HERE" I don't know who is supposed to be paying but I think he does tree trimming or lawns or something. It's just a concrete tube with a little metal slot box in it.
