Received a call Friday from the freight warehouse saying our crate arrived.  The catch is they closed at 5pm and are only open Monday-Friday.  With permission from work, I left a few hours early, met dad and went to the warehouse.  Within a matter of 10 minutes, we had the beams loaded in the back of my truck and were headed back to the house…  Of course, I took no pictures.  Rest assured, the crate fits easily into a small Nissan pick-up truck, and is carried by two people (all the aluminium folding hardware was in the box as well, so weight was approximately 98kilos – 200ish pounds)

Packaging was superb!

… this is the only picture I remembered to get before we took out everything to inventory and such

Workmanship and finish of the beams are simply amazing and we feel as though our money was well spent.

I’ll remember to take better pictures of everything the next time we start pulling the contents apart…
