This hidden doortop stash is a neat weekend project useful for storing something small in a secure and hard to find place in your home.
Using an old cigar container, a drill and some hardware, this project is a very easy one to get started on. Many inside doors are actually hollow on the interior, making it easy to drill a small-ish hole and secure a container hidden inside the door.
Although this won't fool any law enforcement officer worth their salt, any common thief wouldn't think to look on top of a door for hidden items.
The trick is to use a hole which is counterbored, allowing the container to sit flush with the top of the door. When it comes time to remove the container, a magnet will create the force to lifting it out of its secret location.
