This is a wooden 5 lever safe lock, it is completely functional. Timbers used were Oregon for the casing, Ash was a must for the levers as they require strong springs, Merbau for the posts & the lock bolt is recycled Aust hardwood. The key is a mix of Jarrah, Tassie Myrtle & Bluegum. As there is no scale to judge size, dimensions are approx 260 x 200mm. It was a gift for my former boss's 60th. I am a Locksmith & was apprenticed to the recipient 30+ years ago.
