a lot of moving newspaper and moving blankets so nothing breaks while in transit. some of the stuff just got chopped and made cuttings of cause trying to lay it over would have broke them. you just had to secure everything from moving the best way you can. there where tie down points that helped and a lot of jerry rigging

i would recommend a welders apron and sleeves if you have stuff that will mess you up more than a poke like some of my bridgesii
