Lego Safe for Keys

16637229654395178198457692273162.jpg
Hello everyone! It has been about 4 months since last post, because I have been very busy lately. So, I decided to post this! Again sorry to keep you guys waiting. But I will try my best to get something in. So without further ado, here we go!


This is something I think you guys'll like. Inspired by a YouTube video, I made the small version. And by small version, I mean the one in the video. And by version, I mean I have made bigger sizes. And by bigger sizes, I'm talking about a bigger scale Lego safe about double its size. And that brings me to the title of this. This Lego safe can store your keys (up to 3). With additional instructions, you too can make a safe like this. Now enjoy!

Base

This is the bottom part of the safe. The flats in the 3rd picture, it doesn't matter what it is, as long as it is in an 9x6.

It is 3 walls of 3 one "strip" 1-by's, if you will. You know what I mean? Basically a 9-by-whatever (in this case 10 in width, 12 in length). That hitch you see, make a sign out of it! I don't care what the sign is.

Crate for Keys

Can't hold keys without a crate.

I did not feel like taking the majority of the safe apart, so I made the mechanism a 2x2 instead of a 2x3. The orange piece replaces the small ramp. It is also a ramp, but less angled. I tried it with the key you're about to build next, and it works.

Ah, Wait ....where's the Key to the Safe?

Here you go! I tested, it works.

Finished!

That's it! That first pic is the safe bigger than the small one, smaller than the one you just built. Oh, you see the Lego seperator as well? That's to get the top sand-colored piece off if any problems come. Hope you liked it! Don't forget to like, comment and follow me for more great content! But for now, I'll see you all along the rails!
