A crate will protect better against being squished by other cargo, but it's still up to the shipper to know how to secure the item inside well enough to withstand shock. A fully assembled heavy thing inside a fragile plastic case may not make it intact no matter how good the padding is. -- Mark J. Blair, NF6X <[email protected]> http://www.nf6x.net/
