Homemade fire proof safe?? - Survivalist Forum
Nov 29, 2010 · mainehunt. 75 posts · Joined 2010. #10 · Dec 8, 2010. I made my own safe at home. Poured a concrete box in the basement 5' high by 2' deep, 32" wide. Before pouring I drilled holes in concrete floor and walls and drove in sections of re-bar so it is tied in pretty good. My walls of the safe are 4" thick.
DIY freezer to gun storage with dehumidifier hack
Aug 23, 2014 · A 12" 'Goldenrod' uses 8w. It's 66% effective. So roughly you get 5.3w of heat. And it's $30. I found lot's of guys used regular light bulbs. And I found incandescent light bulbs are 95% INefficient. Meaning 95% of their wattage is wasted in heat. boom. So ... a 25¢ 7w night light actually puts out more heat than a Dick's Sporting Goods ...

Using a truck box as a gun safe? - Survivalist Forum
Jan 10, 2013 · Truck boxes lock and are just as heavy duty as a gun safe is, if not moreso for equivalent pricepoints, and also have an actual function as tool storage in a truckbed... Whereas a cheap gun safe can only be either a cheap gun safe or garbage. Most other containers I've been able to find are not large enough to accommodate longer rifles ...
Build Faraday cage around new gun safe | Survivalist Forum
Jan 19, 2021 · The gun safe should act as a fairly good Faraday cage already, due to the all-metal, overlapping construction. I have added a ground strap to mine to help to that end.

need ideas = making gun safe from old refrigerator
Dec 16, 2013 · From there I would liquid nails a 1/2 plywood to the inner walls so you have a place to mount gun racks/shelves etc. The possibilities are endless. If you have an alarm system you can also add the "safridge" as another zone by hooking up a door contact and/or tilt switch.
Good ammo storage cabinet/solution? - Survivalist Forum
Oct 5, 2014 · Shelves are 3/4" marine plywood. Ammo goes on shelves in ammo cans. The weight is substantial, probably could not do this if the gun closet was not on a slab, but this adds another layer of protection for my safe, and keeps the ammo (1) organized and easy to get at; and (2) portable, in the gravest extreme.

Inexpensive gun safes. Harbor Freight any good?
Jan 9, 2021 · 5376 posts · Joined 2012. #1 · Jan 9, 2021. I've been a believer of gun safes for years for guns and valuables. I bought a cannon many years ago and love it. Problem is I have filled it up and need additional space. We all have a few guns that are less valuable and I would like to protect them too. I see Harbor Freight has one for $246.
Tips needed for moving 750 lb gun safe? | Survivalist Forum
Jan 31, 2013 · Destroy the dolly after moving. 500 lb safe for two big guys is a piece of cake, with a good set of hand trucks. The hand truck handles can lay on the dolly, if needed. 750 lbs. divided by 2 = 375 lbs whew! I think you need more than 2 big guys, a ramp, or some homemade engineering, for sure. Reply Like.
