    My issue with the clock isn’t about “is it a safe”, my issue is, is that that could be an item targeted to steal. So if the clock is stolen... there go the valuables.

      All the items are also very easy to pick up and carry with you. Thieves tend to go through houses picking everything up to decide if to toss it on the bed to gather later. Although a secure box screwed to a wall would seem more obvious, it would also take too much time to pinch.

    My dad was a master carpenter. When he built our house, he designed one window with a window ledge that lifted. When the window ledge was lifted, a narrow metal box was hidden in the wall. No one knew this existed until the will was read. He never told anyone, which is the secret to success. It was held in place so that even if wiping it down, it didn't move.

    A friend of mine owns a used book store.
    He gets people selling off their deceased relatives books by the box full.
    He has found two booksafes in boxes.
    Long after the person dropped them off.
    Also people have just put large denomination bills in the books between pages.
    Occasionally a customer would be looking through a book and a large bill would fall out.
    The customer would tell him about it and he'd let them have it. Of course the customer would start flipping through several books hoping to find more money.
    On the food safes.
    After my Mom passed away last year my brother and I went through her food to donate to a food bank.
    Now I know that she didn't put anything in foodsafes because I was taking care of her for several years.
    But I can definitely see that if someone passed away and stashed valuables in those and their relatives were going through their stuff a lot of valuable stuff will either be thrown away or given away or sold at a garage or estate sale.

      Lee Burton if the average B&E type is a guy (I don't have the stats and can't be bothered to look it up) they aren't going to think about tampons - there's still the ick factor of periods to keep them away, too.

    • @leeburton18
      @leeburton18 4 года назад +12

      Jo Luffman, that is why the safest place for valuable items is either feminine supplies or an actual safe. Yes the majority of B&E is committed by men, usually between the ages of 25 and 40. The actual figures have changed since I got my training, but it's somewhere above 60% of B&E are men between those ages

      Single guys have mothers or sisters so the tampon thing could work or it could make the boogie man want to touch it or shake it bc it’s out of place. My SO had a box of pads in his bathroom when we met. He used them to clean the glass in his shower and mirror. No streaks! I keep baby diapers on hand in my house and I have no kids. I use them as medicine booties for hoof injuries. Works like a charm.

    Another flaw with the screwdriver is if someone uses it unknowingly to take a screw out of something, then that thing is going to open up and spill its secrets. Unless you hide the screwdriver somewhere anyway, in which case why a screwdriver as the 'smokescreen'?
    I would also say, if you do use any of these for coins, or anything else that could rattle around, stuff the thing with cotton or similar filler to keep things from shifting around, and giving away the stash.

      Because that screw driver is definitely made to stash illegal drugs that is why it has so little room you could easily fit a gram or ball or any type of street drug in that handle so all you would do is go pick up and drop it into the handle screw it on and throw it into your toolbox that you keep in your trunk or under you seat or whe rea ver you can keep a small screw driver set and then you are all good if you get your car searched.
      Like I said the screw driver can fit a gram or a ball or any type of street drug and that is why it is so small the sto row age compartment it isnt supposed to hold to big of things just a decoy for street drugs.

    You could make that booksafe with any old hardcover book. (You can even pick up something at a dollar store, they usually sell off remaindered books) Just grab a ruler and an x-acto knife or boxcutter and hollow out the inside. Then you'll have like, and extra $15-17 to put in the booksafe!
    You can also make any can a safe with one of those edge-cutter can openers. They may not stand up to as much scrutiny, but if you put it in your fridge, no one is going to think it's anything but a can of pop.

    I once bought a sleeve of 200ct paper plates and painstakingly hollowed out the middle 150 with a boxcutter. I forget the diameter, but the cavity was huge. I then filled the cavity and re-sleeved it and closed it with a twist tie. It was a weird time in my life and I was living in hotels and extended stay hotels and needed somewhere to hide an uncomfortably large amount of cash where housekeeping wouldn't find it. It worked like a charm. Not once did I ever feel like anyone was gonna take my sleeve of paper plates while I wasn't there.

A little studio blood and Nutella on the box just for good measure.

As for the clock, I wonder if you could Drill a hole from the back and put a screw (Or something....) that would reach to the door of the clock...,? I was also thinking that you could put something in the book compartment that would stick the lid more tightly closed like a magnet, or something sticky that would keep the door closed better...

  • @hxhdfjifzirstc894

    So easy to make your own book safe from any old book. Yep, Dollar stores sell books for $1. Just use a utility knife or X-acto type scalpel to cut out an area inside half of the pages. Glue the pages together... or don't... maybe just a bit of tape through the sides of the hole.
    Also, those can openers that cut the side of the can, instead of the top, leave the lid intact and basically turn canned goods into stash cans. You can glue a few small magnets to the lid of the can, and a few to the insides (at near where the lid will be) to make quite a nice stash can. Filling the leftover empty space with a rag will prevent things from rattling around. . This can work with the giant 6 pound cans of tomatoes or whatever that you might find at Costco.
    If you don't want to mess with making a stash can, just find another grocery item such as Argo corn starch, that has a screw top lid. So many grocery item containers are very cheap, and look real because they ARE real. Cheaper and better to make your own.
    Thinking about this for a few minutes will lead to a better result than buying something ready made.

    I think the best place to hide things might be hidden compartments in heavy furniture like a TV stand with an internal drawer hidden inside or a push to open drawer on a bed frame that's against the wall no burger is gonna take the time to hoist a mattress and maybe a box spring up and move the bed frame from against the wall to see if there's anything behind it. Those places help keep party guests and children from finding or throwing away your safe as well. I'd imagine those you would have to have one made or do it yourself though.

    with a little creativity, there are many spots one can hide stuff. empty dvd cases, between fake plants and pots, taped to the back of paintings, stuffed animals, pillows, a vase filled with sand, between trashbag and can, in the freezer/fridge, candles, figurines, toys, dolls....
    i think its better to hide it in something emotional valuable for a better chance of not throwing it away by accident.
