well, at least one anyways. After about 4hrs of work out in my front yard I've managed to get 1 done, complete with custom front cut-outs. Too tired to get at the other one, I'll do that tomorrow, sorry. :(

Hey Bolly, you are going to a great extent to make sure those cabs arrive safely. You are providing more protection than the original factory shipping carton.

Are you getting compensated for your time and expense? I charge for packing on everything under about US$125 and even then it is item dependent. People get more than their money's worth.

It would be interesting to see how much a place like the UPS Store would charge to do a similar job as what you are doing. Packing is a whole other industry, but everyone wants a stellar job for free. To them I say dream on...

Hehehe :)

We'll never get what our packing is worth. On the other hand, I couldn't get what my restorations are truly worth either. Oh well. I never claimed to be a savvy businessman.......ah is a artiste.

hi guys, to get that kind of work down downtown, I'm guessin it'd run ya close to $25/hr, that's specialty work. :) BTW, you guys should see me work my magic on a level. ;)

array, I usually like to get a little something for materials, most times I can scrounge them for free and then we're both happy. I usually guess well as to what I'll use, not in this case...oh, my labour is free. :D
 
looks like your gonna need some pain killers after wrestling them boxes to your local shipper liquid or in pill form ????? looks first class beats the pillow shoved between the speakers i usually get

done!! :tresbon: :banana: :banana:
Bolly - stop and give your head a shake now while it's still not too late! Undo that totally awesome packing job, put some real yammy tweets in those beauties, then give them a listen and you'll be packing up those IMF's and Tannoy's for shipping instead. :D
 
Oh well - I guess someone else gets a chance to get them singing real nice again. Are they travelling far? :scratch2:
