I gotta say I've never been a fan of restoration but it does sound like an OK idea for that.What's that about 2x2x3?

was that a cheaper quality safe or did the early ones often have the hinges on the outside?
seems like a design weakness.
I see a lot of early safe ads while looking at old periodicals. It was common to see "salamander proof" safes. I guess that meant you couldn't cut them open with a blow torch. If I was going to go at that one with a blow torch the hinges would be the obvious target.

It's a typical TOC heavy duty safe and there are many you'll find with hinges like that Matt...

So how big and how heavy? It looks like it may be small and weigh 100 lbs. or so. But hey, it's on wheels so what's it matter.
It's like putting a lock on a small fireproof today and some of those have carry handles.[:D][:D]
