THIS IS MINOR DAMAGE, I DON'T HAVE A CASE AT THIS TIME WITH SOME
MAJOR DAMAGE BUT THIS LITTLE AMOUNT OF DAMAGE TO THE LID MAY
HAVE  BENT OR BROKEN THE SPOOL PIN ON THE MACHINE.
I REPAIR THESE OLD MACHINES SO I BUY AND SELL A LOT OF THEM AND
I HAVE SEEN SOME REALLY POOR PACKING AND THERE IS NOTING
WORSE THAN TO SPEND $100+ ON A MACHINE THAT YOU PURCHASED
AND GETTING IT AND BECAUSE OF POOR PACKING THE MACHINE
ARRIVES WITH DAMAGE AND THE SELLER SAYS "YOU SHOULD HAVE
PUT INSURANCE ON IT".

I WANT TO SAY TO EVERYBODY; "INSURANCE DOESN'T COVER DAMAGE
IT IS CAUSED BY POOR PACKING, THAT IS THE SELLER OR PACKING 
COMPANY'S RESPONCEABILTY.  INSURANCE IS PAYED IF THE SHIPPING
COMPANY IS RESPONCEABLITY FOR THE DAMAGE, OF COURSE THIS
MAY VERY DEPENDING ON WHO THE INSURER IS.  WHAT I AM POINTING
OUT IS, IF YOU PACK IT WELL IT WILL ARRIVE IN THE SAME CONDITION
AS PURCHASED.  TAKE YOUR MACHINE AND WRAP IT IN BUBBLE WRAP
OR WHAT EVER YOU HAVE.

 

DEPENDING ON THE CASE YOU MAY NEED TO TRIM WRAP SO MACHINE FITS INTO
CASE PROPER.  THIS IS THE SMALL BUBBLES IF YOU ARE PACKING WITHOUT
CASE CAN USE THE BIGGER BUBBLES.

 

        

I TAKE PLASTIC OR PLASTIC BAG AND WRAP AROUND ATTACHMENT
BOX AND THEN RUN TAPE AROUND TO HELP SUPPORT THE BOX.

 

IF YOU HAVE OTHER ATTACHMENTS WRAP THEM AND YOU MAY BE ABLE TO FIT
IN CASE UNDER THE SMALL TRAY BEFORE PUTTING MACHINE IN.  
I ALSO PUT THE BOOK IN A PLATIC BAGGIE AND IF NEEDED PUT BETWEEN
CARDBOARD AND CAN BE PUT ALONG THE SIDE OF CASE.
IF THE ATTACHMENTS WON'T FIT IN CASE WRAP AND PUT IN SHIPPING BOX. 

 

THE FOOT CONTROL CAN GO AS SEEN OR WRAP WITH BUBBLE WRAP AND LAY
ALONG THE BACK SIDE OF MACHINE IN CASE.  IF YOU HAVE A FULL TRAY I
WRAP FOOT CONTROL AND IF IT WILL FIT IN TRAY WILL PUT IT THERE OR LAY
ALONG SIDE OF MACHINE BELOW TRAY.

NOW THAT EVERYTHING IS PACKED SAFE IN THE CASE I TAKE MORE BUBBLE
WRAP AND  PACK SIDES AROUND MACHINE AND ON TOP SO THAT WHEN I
SHUT THE LID IT IS SNUG, NOW NOTHING IS GOING TO MOVE WHILE BE SHIPPED.

 

TAKE SOME BUBBLE WRAP AND WRAP OUTSIDE OF CASE AND PUT A LITTLE
UNDER HANDLE TO PROTECT FROM LEAVING A MARK ON CASE. 
AFTER YOU GET IT TAPED TAKE THE TAPE AND RUN  A LINE ALL THE WAY
AROUND IT TO HELP SUPPORT LID AND CASE, I USUALLY RUN A LINE ON BOTH
SIDE OF THE HANDLE.

 

         

PEANUTS OR PACKING OF YOUR CHOICE ON THE BOTTOM I LAY MACHINE IN ON
IT'S SIDE SET MACHINE IN BOX AND NOW PACK AROUND SIDES

            

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT PEANUTS IS IT GIVES THE MACHINE AN AIR RIDE BUT
BALLED UP NEWS PAPER, PLASTIC BAGS WILL DO SIMILAR AS LONG AS
YOU USE ENOUGH.  I HAVE POSITIVE FEEDBACK FROM MY CUSTOMERS ON
MY PACKING AND HAVE HAD ALL ITEMS MAKE IT TO THEIR BUYERS AS
PURCHASED.  I ALWAYS SAY PACK IT LIKE YOUR PACKING FOR YOURSELF!

 

I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU AS A PACKER AND IF YOU ARE A BUYER OF MINE 
THAT IT GIVES YOU A PIECE OF MIND ON HOW YOUR PURCHASE WILL
BE PACKED.

THANK YOU AND GOOD LUCK,
DUANE
