Hi,

I am looking to construct a laundry chute in our closet.



--
My dad built one about 40 years ago. Laundry was in the basement right
underneath the bathroom. Small linen closet next to the bathroom
upstairs. Cut a rectangular hole in the floor between the beams
supporting the floor. Built a frame of 1x2's attached to the beams,
long enough so it was convenient to reach into the the frame in the
basement. Covered the 1x2 frame on the inside with pegboard (1/8" ??)
for ventilation, including the bottom of the frame - clothes landed
there, no need for a basket underneath. Just threw the dirty clothes on
the floor upstairs and kicked them into the hole. Mom still uses it.
