Hi all,
My friend just called me on his cell phone, he is locked inside the vault in his local bank!
It's not open for another couple of hours.

He is running low on drill bits and the battery pack is nearly dead, any advice on a quick exit ?

Thanks for your help :-)

Yeah, good point !!
There is a cell tower near the bank, so I guess he is "lucky" if you can call being locked in a vault lucky!!

He is big into this whole urban exploration thing, not the first time I got a call like this :-(

He's is still looking for idea's. He's got six 2mm drill bits (HSS) and one 3 foot masonry bit.

Which part of the lock is the best to drill, with limited battery power ??
