(1) How deep below ground level should the cap top be? (2) How deep should the bearings be and configuration around the safe be? And lastly (3) Is it Ok to have a dirt bottom or should I place a bottom plane under the tube? Oh and thanks for the capsules.
Hi there! Thank you for your review of the DirtyMan Safe. To answer your questions:
(1) We recommend the cap top to be buried at least 6-12 inches below ground level. 12 or more inches is best if you're storing metals.
(2) The bearings can be buried at least 6-12 inches deep and distributed randomly throughout the area. Using a punch or screwdriver might help. You can also add some old nuts, bolts, and screws for added security.
(3) It is ok to have a dirt bottom to allow drainage, but you can place a bottom plane if you have invasive roots in the area.
Please let us know if you have any further questions. Thank you!
This is the ultimate storage choice. Keep your hard asset close but out of reach of flames or robbers. It’s a no brainer.
Great product. Exactly what I thought it would be - with easy to follow instructions.
Basically the product is well designed. The only question I have is - why does the outer sleeve not have a cap for its base? Without a cap I will need to insert a solid platform under the sleeve to protect from tree and plant roots and moisture getting inside the sleeve.
Hello John,
Thanks for the review! To answer your question:
The outer sleeve was designed that way to allow drainage on the bottom. We don't recommend buring the Safe near large roots or trees, but you can place a bottom plane if you have invasive roots in the area.
Please feel free to reach out if you have any other questions

In Europe you have to pay customs imports, and I thought that this is included in shipping. So I'm now at almost double the price. But otherwise everything else is as described, and a good safe.
I like have something that is small well built and safe from metal detectors!
it it solid and well made. never need to worry about water or other hazards damaging your contents!
my only issue is sending such both a large exterior pipe and cap makes much more unnecessary digging when hiding this size safe!
The product was exactly what was advertised and what I expected. I will be looking forward to using it soon. I would rate it 5 stars.
Excellent product, well designed.
Delivery took a couple of weeks, which is to be expected with everything going on in the heavens & on earth.
Shabbat Shalom!

the metal is in the earth where it came . one day it will rise again. its resting!
Very solid, well constructed & designed!
Thank you for being for conscientious AND for the ounce of silver which I didn't expect especially since I forgot to include Rafi Farber's code.
Wasn't sure about this, but glad I got one (may need to get another one). priority items went in and now I'm thinking a second one might be a good idea.
This safe is built of durable materials. I will not be concerned about the safety of my "stash". I do think a bottom cap with drainage could be designed to try to keep as much dirt and mud off the safe as possible. This is a great way to safeguard your valuables that thieves would not be able to find in your home. I highly support this product. Thank you.
Clearly a lot of work was put into this product to make sure any valuables are stored safely and protected by the elements. If one uses this smartly, then it’s the most secure way to safely secure valuables in our current Clown World.
This is my SECOND Dirty Man Safe! I finally planted my first one a few weeks ago and decided let's get another one! It is very easy to "plant" and seal the DMS gives me piece of mind. In both cases I took advantage of an extra discount which is great. Keep up the good work in "Dirty Man World!" I will be back!
Very affordable way to safeguard small items such as precious metals. I'm pleased I bought one.
Indeed, this product is a game-changer for anyone who values both safety and accessibility.
