1/6/14

Lifted 3 chambers out of the basement and put them on the ISU, temp controlled, loading dock.

1/8/14

Loaded truck for shipment to JLab.

3 chambers arrived at JLab and were unloaded. No obvious damage was reported.

trim crate at least 1/2" so there is more space between the trailer wall and the crate. The 91" inch pallets were fine, need to cut a little straighter as a matter of pride and to make it easier to push onto the trailer.
be sure to cut out a section of the 3x3s so there is room for a pallet jack.
be sure white pallet drift chamber wheel blocks are at the proper locations so the chambers are aligned with the pallet. Distance between blocks is less important since U-bolts holding the front wheel can be moved back, but not forward. Error may only be accommodated if the space between the front block and rear is shorter than needed.
Be sure to lift pallets with crane when pallets can't fit through the elevator
Continue to stage drift chamber on the loading dock, the other pallets can be placed outside, may need to secure a location for the other pallets that contain the A-frames, magnets, and other stuff, the non-drift chamber items can be shipped in a separate shipment.
