I found a locked safe hidden at the back of a closet in my new house

Someone send Rob an angle grinder already… :hushed:

(And a respirator - old fire safes are sometimes insulated with asbestos.)

fyi i hope it didn’t come across as me being an asshole. The safe post just popped into my head today, i checked and didn’t see anything new :slight_smile: I’m sure you’re a busy man, but you must forgive the curiosity of a locked safe.

Crazy idea – more for “kicks” than anything else. Kickstarter! Buy a share of what’s inside for contributing to the locksmith fund :slight_smile: $500 for locksmith … Do 50 $10 shares!

Obviously non serious. Or am I?

20 sqft. void? I bet it’s DB Coopers spider-hole. Check it for parachutes.

I remembered that sound effect as being wonderfully witty when I first read it in Groo #100. Bravo!

It really is cool Rob, as i mentioned before i was just curious where the safe situation was at :slight_smile: Some people might feel inclined to give you shit over the safe, but i find the whole situation amusing. There’s likely nothing in there, but the extra space between the rooms does sound odd. Wonder if there’s a way to get to it without having to cut through a wall… probably not but hey you can expand a room if needed! Or build a little secret room.

I vote for drilling a hole, pushing a camera through on a stick (with LED lighting), and letting people on the internet interpret the imagery.
