Thanks for the advice Miriam. I have packed it like fine crystle very well with peanuts and bubble wrap. My brother really enjoys rebuilding all things electrical. He learned his trade of AC/Cooling and all things electrical in the Marine Corps. He worked on Jet airplanes. Even though he is retired he keeps busy fixing things and enjoys it. Besides he said that when he ships it back to me he is going to pack some lemon grass starts and some heirloom Thai onion sets in the package he has been promising me.
