Between him and the Joker there's no safe place for office workers.

 

Oh yeah we saw the preview for the new one with Joaquin Phoenix...that looks so good. When I heard they were going to make another movie centered around the Joker I figured it wasn't going to live up to the Heath Ledger one but this looks completely different and very promising.

Was no mention of Batman in the preview at all, it really is just focused on what made the Joker 'the Joker'.

 

Yeah it looked interesting.

P.S. Looks like a new job up by Old Pasadena may begin in August. Might look for a new place to live closer than where I'm at. Any suggestions for low-ish rent locations to look in @eon_blue?

 

Interesting, well that makes me feel even better about my decision to change mine then lol. Definitely some noticeable play in mine. Will hopefully knock it out this weekend.

 

This bag woulda been worth 1400 dollars at one point

 

You're even going to give them a tool bag as well, that's cool...I put the coilovers I sold in a box wrapped with probably 3lbs of bubble wrap lol.

 

Wut no.

Well I guess I could.

 

Mine doesn't look that much better...

 

I think I over pack things, but I buy so often from eBay and such and get broken shit that I never want that to happen to someone who buys from me.

Also as soon as I typed eBay in this the app popped up with a notification, so that's getting deleted.

 

I was mostly afraid of the coilovers breaking the box open because they were so heavy, so I taped over and around the entire box with gaff tape. Probably made it less fun to open but it got across the country in one piece

 

Double wall boxes and folded cardboard are great when shipping suspension stuff

 

I don’t know why everyone says duct tape is the shit.

Gaff Tape is the stuff you want. I couldn’t go back to duct tape after I found out the wonders of Gaff tape.

I’ll admit I borrowed a roll or two from my theatre days.

 

Gaff tape is the best tape there is, for most things anyway. Only issue is that it's very expensive compared to a roll of duct tape

 

Oh yeah it’s super expensive. Spike tape especially, our stage manager would hide it until we needed it because it’s so expensive.

 

Would daily...

 

Did stuff the box full of bubble wrap or?

I need to find a box at work tomorrow I guess

 

Is t melting in the Cali heat or?

 

The guy who sent me my ICON’s sent them in the original shipping box, but he used rigid foam to better support it. Bubble wrap won’t do much unless you use the big cell stuff since there’s so much mass.

 

Yeah I used bubble wrap and also some sheets of scrap newspaper and stuff we had lying around the studio to fill in the voids so they wouldn't roll around.

I think @Speedytech7 's advice on doubling up the cardboard inside is the way to go, then fill the voids inside with paper or bubble wrap.

 

My dorkel came in the mail today, I’m surprised how fast shipping from Malaysia was. It came quicker than the TRD decal I bought on here for it.
