The antique rotary sewing machine is listed. That was a big job, but for someone looking for a well-maintained solid old machine this one will be prized. After this project there will be fragments of Styrofoam floating around the kitchen and den for a while. The main packing box has styrofoam around the machine; that box is in turn set into a larger one and there I used lots of packing a friend provided; it's thick 12" x 12" corrugated sheets of the dissolvable cornstarch that are in plastic bags to keep them dry and used not just for packing but for insulation. She gets frozen cat food packed with these. The amount I used would have kept a couple of month's worth of cat meals frozen. This whole thing should ship as a stable and manageable parcel.
Volunteering today at two places where I usually alternate days. This is the "get dressed in respectable clothes and make the trip once and work at two close-proximity places" experiment.
Patty, how is your travel progressing? Did you empty the storage unit in the Deep South and were you able to fit everything in the trailer smoothly or did it require some shoehorn work and general pushing hard on boxes?
