I bought a Griz table saw a little more than two years ago. Went to
pick it up at the dock and the shipping cartons had completely fallen
apart. It was literally a saw sitting in the middle of a pile of
cardboard and kindling, but every piece was in perfect shape so I took
it. It's still working fine but I left the dock thinking "Hm. What a
concept. Self-destruct packaging."

Yesterday I went to the same shipping dock to pick up my new G0586
jointer. This time, both boxes were in fine shape. The cardboard box
with the stand was a little beat up but no dents or holes. The bed was
in a long solid wood/fake wood box, unhurt. Both boxes looked like they
were ready to ship out.

I'm thinking Griz is getting better at this stuff. :-)
