Help! Shipping a 26" drum

Posts: 6583 Threads: 644

From gonedrums

I HATE that popcorn!Got it all over my floor yesterday unpacking my latest drum endeavor.The cats had a great time chasing around.With cold weather came static electricity and floating popcorn.I know it is necessary!Just venting.Back to subject.It is pretty easy w/o an engineering degree to build a box out of several smaller boxes good luck and remember there are other forms of packing materials.Cool1

Re Styro popcorn...I had someone complain to me recently..as I used biodegradable popcorn (made of starch)...and he said the popcorn seperated from the item..leaving said item exposed!

Anyone else have this problem?

I thought I was being good...going all GREEN and all that and saving people the bother of scraping styro ones off the walls....

Maybe your music shop has boxes from amplifier cabinets? I used a Fender box to ship a 14x24 once
