I cannot find the recent thread where shipping was discussed, perhaps it was removed. I saw this from Jeff Jewitt today which is a nice review of the StewMac shipping system.

It’s weird that the other thread is totally gone. Yes, helpful review, Brad. I had seen something like this from Jeff Jewitt elsewhere (maybe YouTube). The per unit cost is higher than simple boxes and DIY packing, but it is money well spent, given the value of the contents.

Yeah, I was wondering where my thread about shipping went! And I thought one of the quirks of OLF was that you couldn't erase a thread once you created it. Hmm...

Brilliant! I've been wondering about this offering from SM for some time. Looks like they nailed it. It also looks totally reusable too.

As for a pump will a regular bicycle pump work or what type of 'hand pump' is he talking about?

Just a bike pump with a cone tip. They sell one at StewMac - https://www.stewmac.com/luthier-tools-a ... g-systems/
