[R-390] R390A Shipping Boxes

[Doug Hensley]

Steve, can you describe how those boxes were configured or constructed?  I emailed that R390A service
which is popular but they decline to reply.  They charge $100 for the box.

I have several to ship as well and trying to come up with a game plan here

Does anybody know where Dan Arney was getting the double walled cardboard boxes for shipping R390A's?? I believe it was a charity group in Texas somewhere but I'm not sure and i do not have any contact info.

We are packing for a move from Seattle to Montana and I have three R390A's without exterior boxes to go around any interior box I use for double boxing.
Those boxes from Dan are great - I have shipped R390A's back and forth across the country to Chuck Ripple with no damage.

If I can't find the boxes Dan used, what suggestions do you guys have for a good double walled exterior cardboard shipping box?
Thanks!?- Steve W7SJT
