Re: Need help with an old safe

Try to see if you can find the sticking points. For an old safe that should be fairly easy. With a bit of luck you can determine the combo in under 1 minute. Look for how combination locks work inside if it's not clear what I mean...

I know what you are saying. However each time around the dial I find 10-20 sticking points, I think the mechanism is just really old and keeps sticking. It's hard to find a bump when the dial is bumping every 5 or 10 numbers for another reason. I sprayed some PB Blaster around the dial yesterday based on a recommendation I read and it did help some, but not enough.
