It is certainly possible to cut through metal with an axe, especially if the metal is gotten very cold using a refrigerant  

this is exactly what was done on one occasion in orlando many moons ago...

the DEA raided a buddy that was in a hotel in orlando. they busted him and took him off to jail with 20 someodd vials of ketamine and around 900 beans. they didnt check the safe...

we knew that he had just picked up 20k beans and a case of ketamine that day... so we had to go back to the hotel and get the safe. the first problem was getting the safe out of the building, as it was cemented in by a steel shaft that was part of the safe. a collar was made from styrofoam and duct taped to the shaft. this collar was filled with liquid nh3 from another buddies uncle that had access thru a welding and gas supply house. let the shit sit for about 2 minutes, then the side of the safe was hit with a 20lb sledgehammer. CRACK! 1 wack and it was free.

the safe was trucked out to a rural area in sanford and the same was done with the top of the safe. the collar was placed around the sides and it was allowed to chill for a minute or so... then WHAM! again, 1 wack ripped thru the safe like it was wood or plastic...

the only down side to it working so well was the fact that the top of the safe provided no resistance to the sledge hammer and 30 or so vial of K were broken and about 5K pills were shattered into dust.

that was a shitload of gelcaps... ill tell you that much.

if one had two of the three keys . pick the third ,got plenty of vids how too pick locks. lot simpler than risking burning the contents of said safe , even the the round key can be picked


"carbon arc  electrode" also know as pin burners in the mining area, burn 992 cat loader boom arm pin out no problem  , melt like butter, case harden

Seems like liquid ammonia would stink something awful, why not use something colder and odorless like liquid nitrogen?

yes we understand next time make sure to use the freedom of information act to find out if the "informant" is involved in the case.
not much you can do i understand that.
i've had similar problems with informants and similar tactics employed, not that i would ever condone violence, i hate violence.

Well that's a shame, considering he just effectively ended someones life.

You should check out my book...... Safe Peeling For Dummys.

You could hit the hinges with freon and shatter some of the hinge but I wouldnt. If ya had a cutting torch I still wouldnt use it. If the hinges are on the outside of that safe it is a piece of shit made to keep out the honest man and the casual inquirer.

We go back to the egyptians and their simple machine called the lever in the form of a wedge. You could score with hacksaw or preferably a grinder than hammer in cold chisel. Than take another one and make that puxxy wider. Than another one and snap! Also the sides are probably no thicker than 3/16's you get a hole started and score with grinder you can peel the sides with chisels and crow bars and a 5lb sledge.

Good luck and godspeed,D

drill it ....unless it has a glass relocker

LMAO!

Oh I have no idea what is inside it wellbie, not a clue, not much way of telling either, it isn't in the best of shape, cosmetically speaking.

I have decided on thermite to crack this one open, simply because powertools would attract undue attention to my activities, and, well, some people are not as open minded as I am where safecracking is concerned

There IS a power supply, or at least I think so, but the use of power tools isn't really an option due to noise, hell, I have already had unwanted attention there from a simple hacksaw on the water pipes (which incidentally are going to be ripe for the picking when the thermite is brought out for some fun and games)

This way at least, it should be nice and quiet.

Oh the idea is along the lines of 'light the charges, whack it with a sledgehammer, make like a banana, and split'
