Hello all;
I have to send some tiles to another state. I have 4 dozen 8" x 8" x 0.5"
tiles. I have not yet weigh them out. They are about 1 lb each. I would lik=

to see if there's a good way to ship them. I was thinking of making a
tightly wrapped giant brick made up of 12 tiles. Each tile is cushioned wit=
h
double layer of bubble wrap and wrapped tightly so there is no movement
within the tiles. If it's a brick, then there would be not any weak corner
for breakage. Then 12 tiles in one box. 4 boxes taped together in a final
large box and peanuts in between. Is that a good solution?
Thank you in advance for you input.
