Child Item

I found a Safe.

Son0vagun

Apon clearing out my shed in my newly purchased house/property I found a safe. It's a floor safe and incased in concrete. It's opened by a key, which I do not have. Written on the safe door is the details of the locksmith who installed it. The previous owner is deceased, so I don't know who else knows about it.

So I want to open it. But I can't decide what to do.

Easy option is to ring the locksmith and have him open it. But what about the contents of the safe? I doubt there's anything valuable in it, but there could be. The locksmith might notify the previous owners family. Or am I now the legal owner of whatever the safe contains?

I could hire a criminal to open it, but he'd want his share and probably murder me if it contained anything substantial.

Or inorder to have complete secrecy I could dig the it out, it would be a hard job. Chisel and hammer, it would take ages. And then use a angle grinder to open It, but the sparks might burn whatever is contained.

So what would you do? Any advice?

Have you tried shouting at it?

Ah, the Jeremy Clarkson School of Engineering. I find shouting "Stupid, Stupid, Stupid!" loudly and throwing tools about also quite effective.

This has the anti climax of Feeky Magee written all over it. It'll be empty, I really really don't want it to be but I reckon it will.

Although maybe he opened it and there is after being a big find and he's trying to find a way to get circa 500 people off the trail

Getting it professionally lock-picked by a locksmith would be one of the more blatant methods for achieving this

Lock pick is the way to go. Fairly easy to train yourself. Would make a nice project Mortice/lever lock picks can made with piano wire. Head over to uk bump keys forum. I learned how to pick pad locks etc very quickly there.

Edit: I see picks have been mentioned earlier. In that case I recommend hiring Magneto.

i think, inside, you'll find the following:

- One forty-five caliber automatic
- Two boxes of ammunition
- Four days' concentrated emergency rations
- One drug issue containing antibiotics, morphine, vitamin pills, pep pills, sleeping pills, tranquillizer pills
- One miniature combination Russian phrase book and Bible
- One hundred dollars in rubles
- One hundred dollars in gold
- Nine packs of chewing gum
- One issue of prophylactics
- Three lipsticks
- Three pair of nylon stockings.

In fact, all you need for a pretty good weekend in Navan

There is a huge difference in padlocks and high security lever locks. you need to use hobbs picks and there are false gates etc.. to contend with.

Work??? The contents in the safe might mean you never have to work again. GET THAT SAFE OPEN. Work through the night if you have to.
