Great video, Ian. A little nostalgic for me. My dad and I cracked a safe like that about 20 years ago. You have the same passion about wanting to crack the combination that my dad did, you remind me of him a bit. Thank you for bringing that memory back to me!!
Okay Ian... here's my take. Weld the hole up.... stick the hinges back in. Put something inside so it does actually make some noise when it is rattled around and then put an envelope that says Congratulations on breaching the Ian Matthews Firesafe challenge, inside the envelope is a note that says: If you notice this notice, you'll notice this notice was not worth noticing.🤣👍 Then weigh it in and say nothing.... 👍🤣
You made a meal of that ! All you needed to do was tell the mother in law you'd locked the gin in there and she'd have had it open in no time 👍 maybe that's just my mother in law 🤔
Just a heads up as you've done it but the asbestos was often mixed into the plaster of paris/ gypsum. I don't think the safe is that old though, probably manufactured mid 1990s
I think at only 1mm thick it would soon burn out. But more importantly although I like the idea, it means I would have to keep it till I get around to it, and I really really need the space.
Another one of Capones vaults. At least it has some rare treasures. Uh. I'll be posting my PO Box Address this week, if you need to send me a sticker of yours. Hint, hint. Great video. Cheers.
75-24-45 that paper says that might be the code for the safe Or a different safe But its no good now You got the hammer out and all day long you'll have good luck Are you sure you wasn't a bank robber back the day 🏦
hmm reduing it to functionall one, no no no having fun with the lock hell yeah ... that is all??? really I'm losing my trust for the safe´s throw that into shreed pile, ... put an chocolate bar inside and tell 8 year old kid what is inside and I bet he will crack it open in no time 👍😀👍
I had visions of you opening up that safe to find a bundle of old £5 and £10 notes, which are no longer legal tender. However, note to all English scrappers finding old money; You can send old £5 and £10 notes to the Bank of England and they will exchange them for the same value new polymer notes. Are you tempted to boot up those old floppies to see what salary your old bosses were on? Take care, Poo
I thought it was funny when you burnt yourself does that make me a bad Person 🤔. Hit with you ommers take pins out bish bosh bash and it's off. Nothing lol in the safe it was a dud lol. Just some old floppy thing's lol.😂😂 and a sticker and some old passwords. Ach well onwards and upwards. Not finished with it yet you could make somthing out it drinks cabinet. That would stop you drinking for a while lol.😂😂 find it out Ian you know you want to. 65.65. 83 lol.
Ian + heavy hammer. Always worth watching.

The moment the door popped off and I saw the rolled up piece of paper I knew what it was! Well done!! 😋👍👊
That’s cos your devious mr Mourik
Brilliant opening lad. Never mind.
Cant win em all. Theres always other safes to break into.
That had to be the most awesome safe cracking video I've seen yet. Superb! Loved the sticker gag. Brute force and ignorance...a scrappers motto 😂
Wow awesome work you done :) have a nice day Ian!

Devious, I like it.
@@Man-in-da-shed Dooo eeeeet!
You made a meal of that !

Blame ya knows BRO. He said there was nowt on Telly so I had to pad it out .
One of those bits of paper looked like it had a combination wrote on it 🤔
Good show Ian...
Just knock the door hinge pins out. Open door. Access contents. Put pins back in door.
Hello sir! Great to see ya again! Awesome video my dear friend!
Thumbs UP
Great vid. Ian thanks
You found a treasure. 🌺✌️😁
Been waiting for this. Great video- scrap it!!
About bloody tam lad
Ian I’m Panicking wear will you Store your scrap if you turn it back in to an Seating area ???⚙️🔩🧲⛏🔧🛠⚒⛓🔌
Skyhooks 😅
Video got me pondering, I wonder how a safe like that might make for a kiln....or perhaps a heat treat box.
I think it would work quite well
Great fun!
Data protection in the 90s👍😎
So much safer then to days methods 🤭😜
good video ian shame there was no money in it back to the scrapping lol
Keep the safe ian as keep sayke put the pins back in 😉👍
Nice video my friend!
Just a heads up as you've done it but the asbestos was often mixed into the plaster of paris/ gypsum.
I don't think the safe is that old though, probably manufactured mid 1990s
Could make a fire box for that rocket stove you've been fancying 👍
I think at only 1mm thick it would soon burn out. But more importantly although I like the idea, it means I would have to keep it till I get around to it, and I really really need the space.
Win some and lose some, still good video Sir.👍🔒
good vid ian
You got rid of a safe. I got rid of an Air conditioner. Happy day!
Space. It’s out there
Weigh it in...
Hate to remind you that them hole cutters are hot mate.....just same as me we like to remind our selfs of real pain 😆
But I knew it would be hot.
Nice one thank you shame there was no gold mate
i know its not relevant to this video but i found some twin and earth lead wrapped wire what a job to remove !!
Coincidentally I’ve save a piece to do a stripping vid on it, now if I can only find it again.
Another one of Capones vaults. At least it has some rare treasures.
Uh. I'll be posting my PO Box Address this week, if you need to send me a sticker of yours. Hint, hint.
Great video. Cheers.
Sure no problem.
I see you have about the same luck I do . Better luck next time 🍺
I think i saw a combination written on a piece of paper that you pulled out of the safe.
I’m going to have to go and re look at it now
The safe is open 🔓😆
Lol good one Ian I lost your email address Ian was going to email you about getting one of your stickers
Ianmatthews001@hotmail.com
Well Ian you did not get rich quick out of that so am afraid its back to the scraping lol 👍👍👍👍
And I’d already put my name down on a Bentley.
They probably won't accept the safe because of the plaster inside it the one I go to doesn't
That will be upsetting, still they take washing machines with the concrete in, just get deducted a bit..
75-24-45 that paper says
that might be the code for the safe
Or a different safe
But its no good now
You got the hammer out and all day long you'll have good luck
Are you sure you wasn't a bank robber back the day 🏦
hmm reduing it to functionall one, no no no having fun with the lock hell yeah ... that is all??? really I'm losing my trust for the safe´s throw that into shreed pile, ... put an chocolate bar inside and tell 8 year old kid what is inside and I bet he will crack it open in no time 👍😀👍
