ok foccers...we know a lot about our fazers but what do you know about safe's   ?

[noggythenog]

Looks pretty safe to me I reckon.

Make a good anchor

[noggythenog]

What's inside it Red????

[robby boy]

Fire resistant too, could be handy that.

I know they're a cunt to get in to without the key. Forget your oxyacetylene as this one will be double skinned and filled in between with a material that makes it blow back.
A large disc cutter through the side or back will be it's weak point.

That's right, he didn't have to, he said "what do you know about them" Anyway, even if he had the key, it's a lot more fun cutting your way into it.
I also know they are very heavy and that one probably weighs about 210.5 kgs.

 Ah........a key........let me think



ah yes...the guy who gave me the safe said that he had put the key in a SAFE place......... ....not opened it yet but I do know theres something in it....

[mickvp]

your only supposed to blow the bloody doors off

[YamFazFan]

Is this a 'guess what's in the safe' competition?.Hmm,that could run for a while!

[slimwilly]

If anyone knows you have a safe in the house then it will attract the robbers 






Do you have the key my friend?,, around here an old pub was robbed and the owner,an old bachelor was murdered in the process,,the safe was never found,,,it looked like that one

ah yes.......thats it, to keep us amused during these short days, will try and open it tomorrow if its dry, its on the back of my pick-up at the moment, to give you an idea of size the picture shows it on a standard sized pallet, will take it to work on monday and weigh it....so, the games are    "WHATS IN THE SAFE"  and   "HOW MUCH DOES IT WEIGH".......guess away foccers   

[mickvp]

Ill weigh in (pun intended ) with a guess of 65Kg

And I reckon there is a safe inside it (inceptisafe)

[BIG MAC]

Thermic lance through the hinges which are a casting ...your welcome....much more fun than a key

Just googled Ratner Safes, there still in business seems to be confusion about when they started making safes late 1700's/1800's
That could be worth a few bob , never mind what is inside it . If you can locate the model/ serail numbers they likely as not could date it for you.

Oooooo.someone knows something.. .....googled it myself and found out they stopped making safes in london in 1963 when they moved to ozzie land, stiill trading today, will email them and see what they know, family business so might have records....

Mmmmmmm.....65 kgs.....iam thinking 100's but I do have an unfair advantage         took two of us just to turn it on its side 

[chaz]

a friend had a safe that had belonged to a contractor on a power station, no key and the back had checker plate welded over it. I used a pickaxe and went in through the base, the metal wasn't much thicker than car bodywork with about 75mm of fire clay between the two metal layers, took about 20 mins.
What did I find? a cash box with no cash in it and a dial gauge worth a few quid, and some time sheets. the safe went to the scrap yard no questions were asked?

" Mmmmmmm.....65 kgs.....iam thinking 100's but I do have an unfair advantage         took two of us just to turn it on its side  "

Sounds like me an the Mrs in a threesome

[noggythenog]

Well.......it all depends on who you've got dismembered and stuffed inside really but coz i want a guess then im gonna go with it weighing..............150kg.......without anything inside.....actually no...im panicking now.......i up my guess to 180kg.Thats my final answer chris

Also gauged on the "2 if us" bluff by red which was a cheap trick coz 2 gen1 owners aint exactly much is it.
