Hey All,
Here is my latest project on the Shopsmith and my Sherline mill.
It is made from walnut, mahogany, maple and zebra wood.
It really works.
I am in the process of drawing it up on SketchUp.
To show the innards.
Designing another one too!
Oh, it is not fireproof, either....
WOW that looks great Can you changedcombo on it?:D
How did you get all the lettering on it?

Once the safe is made, you can't change the combo.
But, I could make it different combination before it is assembled and glued.
The lettering was done on my mini mill. (sherline.com)

I'm guessing that you have the Sherline CNC mill? If it isn't considered too far off topic I would like to know what you like and dislike about the mill. I have only recently added the Sherline to the list of mills to be considered and would appreciate you opinion of the tool.

ABSOLUTELY AWESOME! If I had either that level of skill or patience, it would be a miracle.:)

That is one cool little VAULT. I have to admire your top/side miters and the many small pegs that give a riveted look.
If you would be so kind to let us know, I too would be interested in your process to make the lettering.
