    I thought about taking an air chisel to it but it not being MINE I figured I'd get half a dozen reverse thread cobalt bits and drill till it either breaks loose or I get deep enough to get something in there and loosen it.

    I did not know what was in there and had an extra door that I took apart to see the mechanism then spent a couple of weeks spraying and tapping and then it finally moved and turned out. I am not usually that patient either but there was no real rush. Then gave it to the lock smith for a key. Even have the flapper on the outside. Ed ke6bnl
