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

Just tried running a summary again, and Discourse gives up on pulling replies after January 2017.

That’s because they store the safe combo there.

Waitaminute, over 3000 posts containing a wealth of practical safecracking advice and you still drilled it open?

I am officially Disappointed in BoingBoing.

LOL no, we hit a thick metal plate at the bottom of the drill holes and were stumped. So I started whaling on the door with a big hammer, and it just popped open. Evidently it was just rusted closed. Kind of a let down, really. At least I didn’t spend $400

Shoulda tried the hammer first.

Any plans to re-purpose the safe or you getting rid of it?
