I have a locked storage shed with my stuff. I live in a rural area, but
most of the people in my development are blue collar, hard working folks
who know better than to poke their fingers into places they aren't
supposed to go. After all, most people around here have shotguns and
know how to use them correctly. Plus, my dog has sharp teeth and likes
trespassers.

I thought about adding a separate shed, made out of a S-250 shelter,
locked with a mil-spec lock. If the shelter is bolted inside to a
concrete slab it's sitting on, makes it very hard to get inside without
a metal-cutting saw and a blowtorch. Kinda hard to keep that noise
quiet in my 'hood.
