Ones that look like books are common. Then there\u2019s an \u2018underground secret safe\u2019 (aka buried jar), one concealed in a speaker, one in a torch, ones in aerosol cans, ones gouged into wooden drawers and \u2018hidden\u2019 by a sticker, one in a jar of mayonnaise, another in a tin of soup\u2026 and it goes on. In almost all cases, the act of creating the \u2018safe\u2019 destroys the item being used as the disguise and prevents it from fulfilling its original purpose.<\/p>\n<p>Probably about one Instructable in a thousand is actually something you might need, and of those, many are extremely complex. The rest are submitted by kids.<\/p>\n<p>The firewood safe is certainly slightly clever in terms of the craftsmanship, but I can\u2019t help wondering if anyone in their right mind would risk putting large sums of money or valuable items in something which looks like firewood, is stored on a stack of firewood, and is located right next to a fire which utilises said stack of firewood.<\/p>\n<p>It certainly redefines the word \u2018safe\u2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There\u2019s a website called Instructables, where people provide step-by-step details for building various things.
