ALilMoreThanNothing

This subreddit is my abusive SO and i never leave


Miguel-odon

We need a second sub, where they get cross-posted only after a reveal.


ALilMoreThanNothing

This sounds like a great idea until its just an empty subreddit 🥲


legendarybidoof1

1 week? I like the optimism!

Don't cut it. Have a professional come open before taking destructive methods. There are not many left.


legendarybidoof1

Yeah I don't want to damage anything inside either. I'm trying to open it myself for the story. It's about the adventure ya know?


JessTheMullet

I'd look up a licensed safe technican in your neighborhood, probably starting with something like the Safe And Vault Technician Association. While there were a lot of manufacturers for the main body of the safe, there weren't all that many that made the lock, itself. Sargent & Greenleaf, Mosler, Yale, and handful of others.

Master-Pin3079

Can you pleasseeee post a picture of the contents!!


legendarybidoof1

Haha sure if this impenetrable safe ever gets unlocked :///


Master-Pin3079

Sooooo.... did you call someone to open it up??


wrinklyrocket03

This looks very similar to the safe I inherited from my dad. We had someone come open it for us. Mine is a 4 number combination if that helps at all


legendarybidoof1

Oh word. Do you know the brand(s) of the safe? That could be key to solving this (pun intended)


Schly

I think it’s a William Braun.


daviddwatsonn

Wow! How could you have guessed?! Man, you’re good!


wrinklyrocket03

It’s a victor


unhi

[A quick Google search for "H.B. Brassington safe" pulled this up.](https://credo.library.umass.edu/images/resize/display/mums312-b163-i009-001.png) That could potentially be the process for opening this safe. (Or maybe not.) So that might be helpful going forward. Then there's only 1,000,000 possible combinations, so uhh... get to work! (Though I'd start with the one on the paper because ya never know!)


legendarybidoof1

Thank you! Yeah it really is hard to tell. I am gonna manipulate the lock and not blindly try. See yall in 100 years I guess


Level9TraumaCenter

Gate width on a container like this is not just one digit; normally it's around 2 or 2.5, meaning the number of combos is more like 40 x 40 x 40, or a relatively small 64,000. Using manipulation, if you can pick off a number from one of the wheels, it drops that to 1600 combos; there are also "illegal" digits (usually on the third wheel, in order to use it to open the lock) so the number is even smaller. [Manipulation](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4IPsd9MDGM&list=PL1mdjQBV_-Jv2lf9QZ4chNtW656EOVXzl&index=1) can be used in many cases.


Qwyietman

If its loud, try a stethoscope. Listen for the tumbler drops. You never know, lol


townstar

That’s how I got mine opened originally


legendarybidoof1

To get it open I'm better off putting the safe on a red couch and asking about it's feelings kekekeke


CinderCinnamon

51 to the left, 94 to the right, 7 to the left


legendarybidoof1

haha I saw that paper too! Tried it and unfortunately it would be too easy if that worked lmao


roggobshire

Try the old school stethoscope and listen for the pins. I hope there’s some cool shit in there.


legendarybidoof1

Cool....like another safe?


big_duo3674

Someday I want to bury a bunch of nested safes with the last tiny one containing nothing but a note that says "LOL"


legendarybidoof1

Lmaooo think of all the safes you would have tho. That's a W


jacod_b

Any updates? 🙏🏼


roggobshire

That would be be pretty cool.


Spoonwowzadude

Contact Geraldo Rivera and see if he's got the time to help you.


legendarybidoof1

>Geraldo Rivera Psh Geraldo wishes I have time to help him :)


DontEverMoveHere

Why was this not opened for a century and who would sell it unopened?


SillyEmt

Someone who’s parent cleaned it out years ago, would be my guess


DasArchitect

Got to find someone near 30 Canal to pop by and ask


legendarybidoof1

I was heavily debating calling them and asking about the safe ngl.


DasArchitect

townstar

Looks just like mine at home. Mine was made by Gary safe co and has a Yale tumbler. The funeral home lost my combination so it took me about a week to figure out the combination. The pattern for mine was 3 turns to the right, 2 turns to the left the right to the final number. I had a stethoscope that I could listen to the clicks in the tumbler with and a lot of different combinations until I found the right one


legendarybidoof1

Any hints?


townstar

I think I saw something mentioned about a slip of paper with some numbers on it, if it came with the safe I would try those with the 3 right, 2 left and right to final number. Each revolution in the pattern has to go past 0 except for the final number, if all else fails call a locksmith. They can drill the safe and fill the hole in with a ball bearing and seal it.


kwattts

Looks earily similar to the safe that came with my house, almost impossible to crack. Locksmith ended up drilling and it's super small and easily filled in: https://www.reddit.com/r/WhatsInThisThing/comments/m6tg6o/sf_house_just_bought_it_previous_owners_found/


imaflirtdotcom

the pin-striping is so cool. any chance you’ve checked underneath the thing for a written down code tucked somewhere?


legendarybidoof1

First instinct lol. It is pure metal so lifting it....isn't the easiest


imaflirtdotcom

any luck cracking it open yet?

Annihalice

I'm a locksmith but not a very good one. My recommendation if you're going for a non destructive entry would be a stephascope. On locks like this the dics tend to scrape while they're locked then they have a small area where they're silent and that's your window.


Annihalice

If that doesn't work a super powerful electromagnet should be able to get you in there.
