Of course, it will be postage due. With shipping costs, cost of a crate, and import tariffs, it should run 90,000 Euros.

F cken awesome, truly a work of art and engineering

[phoneman85]

wow, just wow. VERY cool work there! That is a fine example of German engineering. Is the whole thing a steel box,or are the sides and back wood?

[Vaultdoor101]

Hey guys

Thanks for the kind words again

The sides, back, top and bottom is wood, because of the weight and because of several reasons i explained in one of my replies here. Next time i will get new pics in here

Best regards

That's very nice. It was fun watching the progress over on AL.
If only I had a mill and a lathe, I could make one myself. Maybe someday...

[sleepyrz]

wow

just wow

do you think you could make a video of you spinning the hand cranks and how it opens

[johnb007]

Wow, that is some vault door. I think I sat here slackjawed for about 10 minutes in awe! I envy your machinist skills.

[Vaultdoor101]

Hey guys,

I know I havent been here for a long time, sorry for that... I just had a lot of work to do

@sleepyrz:

Firstly thanks for your kind words Well if all the mechanics are working, I would love to And you guys will be the ones who will know But theres a lot of work to do at the door!

@johnb007:

Haha thanks for your kinds words I hope your jaws are working well again ;D

Best regards from Germany

Well, I can't claim any special knowledge about either machining or vaults, so I'm clearly not appreciating this to the same extent as some others here. But I can recognise fine craftsmanship and attention to detail when it's looking me in the eye. Hats off to you, Maik, that's a seriously impressive piece of work.

I just wanted to share this project with you, because maybe somebody else wants to build such a door. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them and i will see what i can do

Your kindness is exceeded only by your humility. I think this guy's comment summed it up pretty well.

I bet you are pretty proud of that and you should be because it is an awesome task to take on and not something most folks could achieve even if they wanted to and had the tools.

I look forward to seeing the pictures when you have it done.

@The Locksmith:

Well thank you very much, its really an honor for me to receive such nice words from all of you And I am really happy that you like this project so much!

In a couple of weeks I will continue this work and if you like, I would give you some status updates (Photos, videos on youtube, etc.). I will first continue on building the remote combination viewer. I gathered all the missing parts together now (gears, bearings, housings) and so I am looking forward to finish this big part of the door. The used locks for the door are two Kromer high security 3-wheel combination locks.

Guys, thanks again for the kind words, you are motivating me to actually do some videos about the construction and operation of the door My speeches in the coming videos will be in English of course!

Best regards from Germany
