Rent a safe deposit box. If it will hang under a bed, the bad guys will get it within minutes.

If it hangs under a bed, it is called a decoy.

Why are you melting scrap metal? Honest yards give no better price.

We are talking brass, copper, and similar scrap, are we not?

Time for more coffee.

Watch this before buying a safe. Easy to open brand new electronic safe in seconds. The thieves know all the tricks.

I get a lot of scrap sterling and some gold from my jewelry making activities and never melt it into bars. Precious metal buyers don't really like home cast bars, you are better off just sending in the scrap as it is. In fact I don't know ANYBODY who likes to buy home cast bars, too hard to tell what their composition is and too easy to fake. As others have said, small safes are inheritently not safe.

I bought myself a small boat but it sank. I keep a small amount well hidden in the house as a decoy the rest somewhere else. Keep Stacking
