Good stuff guys but i think i got some of you beat...
back in high school when taking wood shop i made a "custom" fish tank stand out of oak. back then i was into pot and other drugs and being the crafty stoner i thought of a hidden compartment to stash my dope. it's hard to explain but the upper portion of the stand was built solid because 55 gallon fish tanks are very heavy. i hollowed out a portion at the top big enough to fit a size 12 shoe. there is no possible way you could see the door that is removed from inside the cabinets. i have told people it was there and they couldn't figure out how to open it and couldn't even see the seems. you press up on one corner and slide it forward, there are dowel pins that it slides with and once you get it to a certain spot you press the other side and it pops down. bam, you have a 5"x12" compartment to store anything...in this case, gear!
i'll have to take a picture because it is impossible to explain...not one person could open it even after i told them where the door was. the cops would have to destroy it to figure it out and they won't do that with my huge fish tank sitting on top of it.
