Hidden safe ...

#1 Post by Polchraine »

Saw this on BBC: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-englan ... e-67433160

An ideal place for a small gun or ammunition safe!

Why did kamikaze pilots wear helmets?

God loves stupid people, that is why he made so many of them.

Why would something like that be hydraulic? It's not lifting any real weight. A simple motor and pulley would have done the job cheaper and easier.

i would guess it's because there is something out there that is ready made for this. some motorbike lift or something that lifts 2 foot, and can sit under a unit.
motor and pulley would probably require some fabrication.

as for gun cabinets and the like. its certainly an idea, although if implemented upstairs I think you might spot it when downstairs!! haha.
certainly something to think about for gaining some extra space in the garage though. you just need room above.
When guns are outlawed, only Outlaws will have guns

Valid point.
