Default PAC1085---> My shaft is your shaft and has shipped.

Again, sounds like a AWOT post......

The shaft has shipped, on its way I sent you an email with the tracking number but it is due there by Friday.

It is packed such that even if they throw it down some stairs, run over it with the Brown truck and maybe even shoot at it..... it should be fine. ;-)

It's covered in bubble wrap and foam, packed in a custom made wooden crate, again covered in multiple layers of bubble wrap and then skinned in cardboard. There is a screw driver bit taped inside on the crate for a hand drill to get the crate apart as they are torx drive stainless screws. Also it's a carbon fiber shaft.... careful not to scratch it or drop it. ;-P

Thanks man! Hope it all works out, glad to see it get used after all this time in my shop.

Doug.
