Understood. Everyone should have plenty of time to check with their post office and make arrangements to get one before it arrives to them though.

Actually, if you create an account on USPS site, you can order them for free....and they will deliver.

Yes, I told the post office where I work south of me but they're too lazy. I just wanted members to know in advance to be sure they have access. They're the best deal out there.

Yes.  I do this all the time, though my local post office carries most of what I need.  Also, if you create an account, you can sign up for "Informed Delivery" and an e-mail will be sent to you letting you know what to expect in your mailbox each delivery day.  It's not perfect but, overall, I find it quite a convenience.

LOVE informed delivery. The email isn't the most accurate as stated but the texts are spot on Happy2

Rod (ezlovan), thank you so much for working with Andrew (andrewjs18) to do this pass around.  Our members really appreciate it.  I am excited to hear what those on the list think about it and all the best to you for a huge success. Happy2

I think this is the one Roderick would like us to use.

Yeah, but wasted time, and no guarantee the new machine shop won’t be more expensive.

All you'll need to do is reseal the box and put it inside a new USPS priority mail bubble mailer, which are free at any post office. Please do not under any circumstances ship it in anything but that box inside the priority bubble mailer. There is no automatic insurance for a first class package, and in my experience with literally 10s of thousands of packages shipped, priority mail is far more reliable than first class mail.

Pardon my ignorance but what do HA and ST stand for?
