The number of bank branches closing just now maybe there is a real night
safe glut on the market at knock down prices?

I need to make a chute to go through a 12cm lath and plaster wall in a
Victorian house.

At the far end will be one of those cheapo small safes with a keyboard for
entry of a code to open it. The safe is currently on a shelf and screwed
to the wall.

The other end of the chute will be positioned behind a picture to hide it.

I guess the chute needs to be sloped downwards to discourage the bags of
coins and bunches of cash from getting stuck on the way in.

This isn't a particularly high security environment so no need for spikes
inside the chute to stop people trying to fish stuff out!

I'm planning to take a square of metal out of the back wall of the safe
with an angle grinder where the chute joins the safe.

I reckon the chute needs to be about 6cm high and 10cm wide - not as wide
as a letterbox. It probably needs to slope down at about 45 degrees.

I'm planning to cut through the first bit of plaster and laths with a
multi tool and hope I'm not near one of the studs, then come through on
the other side in a similar manner but further down to allow for the
slope.

I'll probably have to make the chute out of MDF but can anyone suggest a
suitable pre-made chute material? Maybe the kind of pipe used to vent
extractor fans?
