- TAP: OPENING P.O. BOXES
-
- Opening P.O. Boxes: First of all
- playing with mailboxes (whether it
- blowing them up or stealing the mail)
- is a federal so be CAREFUL. The old
- type of PO boxes (the type that have
- two wheels marked a-z) are very simple
- to open. To find out the combination
- place your finger on the opening button
- and give it a hard jerk. As you do
- this watch the right hand wheel very
- closely. You will notice that it
- moves slightly. Turn the wheel to the
- next position the wheel and try again.
- At one point you will notice that the
- wheel stays absolutly still. This is
- the opening letter for this wheel.
- The reason this works is that when the
- button is hit a cam hits the wheel and
- thus jumps. When the wheel is aligned
- to its opening letter the cam falls
- into the cut in the wheel and there is
- no movement.
