skysurfcam 0 #1 June 1, 2005 You really accumulate some gear over time. Some you leave at the DZ, some you cart around. Personally I've always worried about the custom stuff. Vid's and Dslrs are expensive enough, but add in the stuff you build, pick up, collect, and save for for years, and not only do you have enough camera and jump gear laying round to pay for a mid sized family car, but you would also take a year of "shed time" to rebuiid the custom stuff, and probably almost as long for gear mfg's to replace the things you've custom ordered. Jeeze it'd hurt if some casual thief broke in and gathered up the good stuff, just to sell some at the pub, and discover there's no actual market for the rest. Keeping one rig, and vid/still helmet in the boot of the car, and another spread throughout the various household cupboards seemed clumsy for the last decade or so! A good mate just solved the "Where do I keep this stuff from the casual B&E prick?" problem. Doing nothing in his garage, he gave me this for free. It's fire resistant, casual thief proof, and heavy as hell. Took 5 of us a couple of hours to move it in. I'll feel a lot better now when I'm working weekdays Brother Wayward's rule of the day...

nate_1979 9 #4 June 2, 2005 Make sure you put some dessicant (spelling?) in there... I have a safe that I keep my gun / other stuff in, one time that I left it shut for quite some time without checking the stuff in it. Some of the stuff, most noteably my gun had some signs it was exposed to moisture and started to rust a bit... Those safe's just dont allow much air transfer and any moisture in the air gets trapped and makes crap nasty.. FGF #??? I miss the sky...
