Updated!! New member and his Dumpster diving safe DEFEATED!!
New member from Seattle. I found your site while looking for information on safe locks. I was helping a shopping center clean out a vacant space and saw a safe stashed in the corner of the back room. They said the tenant abandoned the space and left it along with everything else that was really heavy. They didn't have the combination, it was going to the dump and I could have it. Nothing special and kinda fugly but I always wanted a safe and it was free. When I came back to the site the safe had been thrown in the dumpster due to a miscommunication. I told them to forget it as I called the locksmith from the sticker on the front of the safe and he said I would need a drill and repair and it would cost more than the safe was worth. The supervisor wouldn't take no for an answer and a couple straps, 3 guys and a forklift later it was in the back of my truck with me wondering what I was going to do with a safe I can't open. So here I am. Thank you for all the information I have tried to absorb from reading past threads. I'm gonna try and crack this sucker!
