Since the damage from shipping is a major concern we are
asked to pack each pen individually, in tubes, plastic bags or roll them
in newspaper but make sure that each pen is protected. If the
people coordinating shipment overseas has to wrap each pen it slows the
delivery of our pens.
Here's one method.
Place one or two layers of paper towel on the table and a
pen at the corner.
Fold over the paper towel to start
After rolling one turn or so fold in one end of the paper
towel
Roll a bit more, say 180 degrees and the fold in the
other end. The excess paper towel provides better protection on both
sides of the pen this way.
Finish rolling paper towel
Place tape or a label on the outside, indicating who made
the pen if desired. Here you'll see we have affixed a special thank you
message.
When done you'll have something like this.
Here are pens ready to box up and send to the Northwind
Associates in Hayes, VA who are kindly managing distribution to our
soldiers.
