The packing job was simply not up to the task. "LeeValley" tape is way too
short over the ends and the box is too light. I'm surprised.

Product arrived with no damage. Packaging worked perfectly. The standard
for tape over the end is 2" Anything more is a waste of tape. Plain paper
tape must be in an H pattern, but reinforced tape is OK with one strip.
Carton is to specifications as required by UPS and the NSTA.
