You could use watertight boxes within the safe.
As for the melting of the slabs, I'm pretty sure that I have a graded card or two that I need to "free", and upon doing so, rather than just tossing the slabs I will run them through the oven to see how they stand up under different temps and let you know. As for insurance, it is great to have insurance, but it is even better to never need it. I would much rather take the precautions necesssary to make my insurance premium a waste of money, then to have to collect on the policy. Last edited by timzcardz; 04-12-2013 at 12:34 PM.

Kiinda different, but heres a SLABBED COIN that got melted: http://www.cointalk.com/t209641/

Be careful that you have a fan or open window--there could be an awful smell.

Not so sure it's wise to put plastic in an oven. Burning plastic will produce at least 600 times more smoke than wood, and it is much more toxic. Also there is always danger of a fire. Dave. ps it can also produce toxic fumes BEFORE it actually ignites. Bottom line....Don't do it!
