This piece reminds me of the four-digit lockbox that holds the key to get out onto our roof. Great views up there.

I knew that mathematically it would be pretty easy to brute force, and figured I could belt out a thousand combos per day and probably get it done within the week or so. "Well, no time like the present," I thought, "...better get crackin'." ((of knuckles))

Changed the combo to 0000, pulled the handle, and... click! Opened on the first try. :-D
