[78-L] Moving 78s 2800 miles/ 4500 km [fwd]

[Darrell Lehman]

"Orange" boxes with "slip-over" lids work excellently. MOST have enough 
space above the records to allow the upper box(es) to sag slightly.  For 
long term storage a piece of 3/4 plywood, cut to size gives enormous 
support.  A lot of grocery stores give away their boxes but a produce 
store is even better (there's one 6 blocks away - lucky me!).  Craig's 
List will help you find free plywood - a near-by sign maker gives away 
4x4, 4x5 and 4x6 ones regularly.

I've stacked 'em 5 high for decades with no problems.  As I get older 
they seem to get heavier (?) but using a "spacer" (insulation, a smaller 
box, etc) in the middle makes them more manageable.
