In discussing having my 9' Gold Crown III moved with the move of my entire house hold (1400 miles. KC to central NY state), the moving company said they require the slates to be crated. There are a couple of topics about crating but no pics. I was going to crate each of the three pieces individually.
1) Build the frames out of 2x4 or 1x3 1x4?
2) used lumber on the top and bottom of the frame or plywood? 1x4 or 2x4 if not using plywood?
3) Slates with backing look like they are about 1.75" thick so what do you use to fill the gap on top and bottom if using 2x4s for the frame?
An example pic of a crate would be greatly appreciated.
Its not too much extra money to include the table with the rest of the furniture so it would be great to have my table at the next place.
