I've found a perfect pair, yup, PAIR of pop machines to break into. they are inside of a building in a hall with NO surveilance around. they are pretty new pop machines, i would guess made after 1998 or so. what will i need to get into them? what specific drill bit will work on the locks? (i am not sure what type locks they are.) what should i bring along that will speed the process up? i dont want to be too noisy either, so using freon and a sledgehammer is kind of out of the question

this is a serious question, meaning all you 13 year olds dont get to answer because i dont want to hear how to put saltwater into the coin slot.

a bomb

I guess I will have to try the bomb next time. I couldn't drill the lock for anything! I got a $25.00 drill bit that is good for drilling up to 3/4" steel. i plugged in my drill at the outlet next to the machine and went at it for about 10 minutes when i finally gave up. i had hardly made a scratch in the lock (well, i had, but at the rate i was going it would have taken me another 30 minutes and i had 2 machines to do that too.)

what kind of a bomb should i use? just some c4 or something?

Newer vending machines have pretty good locking mechanisms and coin and bill recognition so it's pretty hard to get anything out of them unless you just totally go apeshit on it. Try a portable cutting torch if you really want into them.
