Flat Pack Kits Arrive

The day has arrived! My 6 crates and 2 tubes have made it all the way from South Africa to my home in Bend, OR!

I thought that 1 slot in a 2 car garage would be enough space, but boy was I wrong. I need to find a temporary space to store most of these.

Transport from Torrance to Bend cost arount $2.5K and took about a week. It seems that it was transferred from one truck to another in Redmond, OR before the final shipment to me.

The driver complained that the wood block on the underside were spaced in a way that didn’t accept the forks of US palette trucks. We had to manhandle the boxes onto a dolly to get them out of the truck and into my garage.

Overall the crates were in pretty good shape, but there was some light damage. We’ll see if that translates into any damage to the parts inside.
