Well I drug the Silvertone out of storage last week, intending to get the 21fbp22 rebuilt. I called Hawkeye and talked to Scotty, he says they can do it.
Now all I have to figure out is how to get this giant bottle to Iowa. Scotty doesnt have crates for these, so I went to the UPS store to ask if they could pack it. I had to explain to them what a picture tube is. They said "we dont pack anything fragile, it has to be able to survive machine handling and a 4 foot drop" I went to another one and they said "were not set up to pack anything that large."
I'm thinking of putting it on a Greyhound. I'll check a couple of more places on Monday, but it looks like I'll probably be packing this myself, and I don't know how.
Has anyone done this?
