I'm thinkin' insurance will be handy on this one. I think I will get some fragile stickers plastered on it. Not that that will make much difference, it will look like too much fun to someone between here and there! I hope it survives Brock! I packaged it well!

yeah, that is just begging to get the javelin treatment. 
Hopefully it will be ok. We will keep our fingers crossed.

First thing is to knock off that "little lump"thing taped onto the javelin then the fun will really begin. My guess is it will look more like a used door stop( and as small) by the time it arrives (It would if it were comming to me...ups, fed-x, usps...doesn't matter...they beat the daylights out of every thing that's addressed to "SKG").It's sort of a tradition now. When I get a package arrives that's only half mutilated we figure it must me another new guy.

double length purflings. Some of them are veneers. So that is probably why they can't be wrapped. They are just too fragile. |

Dave When next I send wood to you I will add lots of extra padding. You are right, you are the only one that has reported any degree of damage. I put Brocks stuff in wood box using very tight grained fully quartered spruce for its strength and light weight. Hey, isn't that why they are guitar tops? Shane |

how about PVC pipe/conduit as a shipping container? pretty cheap, pretty light, pretty easy, and you'll be paying a weird-shape surcharge anyway. Sleeve one size inside another for extra rigidity. |
