HI GUYS,
Everybody knows that, where all of their secret materials (money, gold, credit/debit cards) are kept in everyone's home, and thieves are well aware this.
They (thieves) arrives to one's home and easily stole all our secret things from our regular secret area.

To confuse them and also to change our regular secret area into easily unknown by others, I created this instructables and want to share with you guys.

WHY FM RADIO ?

Before 10-15 years manufactured products had much more quality and pretty looks than now a days manufactured products due that they gives a life time satisfaction.

I brought one FM RADIO to low cost and it plays more than 20 years in our home, and stops working before a month.
But my mind can't throw it away after its not working because of its design.
It has a casual design even my mind thought to re use it.
It has large space inbetween it's body, so that I decided to reuse it something a new way and convert it into safety locker.
You guys also convert old CRT TVs, CRT computer monitors into safety lockers .

Then remove all the wires from the dismantled components and also remove all the wires inside of FM RADIO (tuner also).
Yet we have some empty space between radio bodies and we change this empty space into safe locker.

Then place again wire cutted components in their place.
Don't put speakers again because of they occupy more space from the empty space, so that put only screws and nuts (DUMMY) in the speakers place.
