Best packaging dunnage & protectors according to redditors

1- Why in the name of all that is holy are you using neosporin on a reptile? It's hardly effective in mammals and does jack all for reptiles but make them greasy and screw with normal sheds. Don't use petroleum based products on reptiles, except in eyes. I know hobbyists like to use neosporin and other OTC ointments but they just don't have any research proving they do anything more than grease up the reptile (which then leads to screwed up shedding, which leads to a whole host of other issues).

2- Call ASPCA poison control, but don't be too surprised if they have to call a university and get back to you. In the meantime, using diluted povidone iodine (weak coffee color with tap water) or diluted chlorhexidine solution to wash the area.

3- Call the vet for a refill of silvadine. I see from your history that you have been to a vet for the burns, which is great. But it's better to just keep the area clean and dry rather than slather anything that isn't prescribed on it.

In general most topical analgesics or anything in the "-caine" class of drugs has poor to no research in reptiles. Research in reptiles is spotty and OTC products tend to have NO studies outside of mammals. Toxicities that are reported are for specific drugs that are used as toxin agents for non-indigenous species control. Reptiles make poor drug research animals because of their seriously inconsistent surface and GI uptake times and species variations.

Honestly, the absolute best way to treat burns is to follow the antibiotic course the vet prescribed. Keep him in a container using paper towels or non-inked newspaper (you can get this off amazon). Clean the wounds as directed by the vet and only apply ointment prescribed. Silvadine works great for burns, but understand this is going to be a many many months recovery. Anything petroleum based is going to make the upcoming sheds harder than necessary and sheds in the next few months to a year are going to be hard anyway. Keep a huge stock of either chlorhexidine or povidone and paper towels or clean paper for cage substrate until you have achieved a normal shed and the wounds have completely healed. If you have previously used heat rocks or heat pads, toss them for extra lights. You really really want to control the temperature in the direction of burns as any new scar tissue or skin is going to have very poor innervation (nerve sensation) and will be more prone to added injury from heat sources.

I haven't shipped any out, but when I moved I taped the bigger ones between two pieces of really thick/rigid board (greyboard, actually, leftover from bookbinding projects). I used a bit of double-sided tape to secure it to the center of the "sandwich", and some normal tape around the edges to tension it shut. I can't remember if I used bubble wrap, but they probably ended up in boxes with other craft stuff, separated by wads of crumpled paper (this kind).

Here It's called instapack.

You could buy some newsprint paper to print your fake newspaper clippings on:

Worked well for me.

Has anyone experimented with packing paper? Amazon sells 10lb stock in oversized sheets that I imagine could be cut to fit manual feed on a home laser printer or ink jet. Maybe one could even print tabloid-sized copies on this stock at Kinko's. There's probably a risk of it tearing internally while printing, though.

I've done some experimenting, trying things out for my etsy store more than Poshmark, and although I've happily settled on clear bag closed with a thank-you sticker for Poshmark/eBay clothes, I did like the look of using brown craft paper tied with rough twine (a roll of the paper and the twine can both be found at the dollar store). The paper made such nice creases! Tissue paper foils my best efforts and winds up looking like I am using my trash for wrapping paper.

During my last move, I had those big paper sheets for wrapping glasses, fragiles, etc. Like these: https://www.amazon.com/Packing-Paper-Large-Bundle-White/dp/B00MR7VY2W

I know I didn't pay more than $10 at Walmart, and while I was packing whenever I sold something I was just grabbing those to wrap around the item and it was GREAT. So much more substantial than tissue paper or even nice gift wrap.

I feel the lure of those adorable polymailers but until/unless this sales drought ends, I'm not ordering them. I do use white polymailers now and always scrawl a message on the outside using silver sharpie (or whatever color sharpie I come across when all the silver ones have vanished). I am exactly the kind of person who would sit around and doodle drawings all over polymailers to keep my hands busy while watching a movie or something, and if I ever get to a place in my life again where I don't have a stack of things that need my hands at all times, I will probably DIY a bunch of them one night :)

If you don't want to take anything out you can grab one of these on prime and it should be there before you move.

Personally I would just pull the GPU and cpu heatsink if it is big and heavy.

Stuff like this works well. It's the next best thing to not having the original custom foam inserts

In that case, I'd get a box big enough that will hold it, fill it full of foam, enough to fill said box (ideally in the form of rigid, expanding foam packs like this, and simply ship it to wherever you're going. Make sure to insure it, because if something is going to be damaged by shipping it, a monitor is a good candidate.

You could also ship your PC as well. Hopefully you still have the box for your case, but if not, boxing it up with foam is easier than with the display. You just need static free packing peanuts. If you're using the OEM CPU cooler, you don't need to unmount it prior to shipping, but you should unmount the GPU, put it in an anti-static bag, and either ship it in the same box as your computer, or seperately if there's no room.

Edit: as I think about it, you could probably ship the monitor with the packing peanuts. It's certainly cheaper than the expanding foam.

After I double-checked it's actually the Pelican 1401 foam I bought. Here's the amazon link:

Like I said it turned out to be way more than I needed, if you wanted to save yourself $5 or so you should be able to buy a smaller set (but check the dimensions just to be safe).

I like using newsprint weight paper for printing my foundations. I had been using Carol Doak's product, but I stumbled across this ream of newsprint on Amazon. It's five times the amount of paper, for less than double the price of the Carol Doak paper. I'm going to order this next time I need some.

I liked this case when my collection fit inside (and still use it for some extra supplies). Being paranoid about my ships I used some Pick N Pluck foam for a few ships to help wedge them into the slots. As for the range ruler, I used a row in the upper tray for that and all the other maneuver templates.

I believe you're looking for "newsprint paper". Where are you located? Amazon.com caries a wide assortment of it.

Edit: link

De firmaer der bygger pre-built systems gør det nogen gange med at smide pakker med expanding foam ind i selv kabinettet, som det her https://www.amazon.co.uk/Instapak-Quick-Expanding-Foam-Packaging/dp/B007KM3HY2?&tag=linustechtips-21

Men jeg tror ikke du kan købe bare en enkel eller to pakker af det, så det bliver nok lidt pricy.

Men taget i betragtning af at du planlægger at skidtet skal retur til Danmark igen om et halt eller helt år (lyder det som om), så er det nok en god ide det med en bærbar. Den vil du jo have brug af i flere år og den kan du nemt tage med dig frem og tilbage.

:edit: Her er en enkel pak af det, er vist mere realistisk https://www.amazon.co.uk/EcoBox-Inches-Instapak-Temperature-2032-1/dp/B00KAFU2SK/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1549407937&sr=8-3&keywords=instapak

Og et eksempel på hvordan det virker: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-WLqG6QskM

I used to print practice tests for students on that paper to mimic the real test conditions. It's 30lb newsprint. This might work for you.

Wanted a better way to carry my things to the sessions so I heavily modified and printed a spellbook dice box/dice tray to be able to fit a few minis, a dice box, and a mini spellbook I made using some cheap things from amazon.

If you want to make your own all you'll is need is:

• 3D Printer (or access to one)
  
• This files are the book itself
  
• For the mini spellbook I used this cheap "leather" credit card wallet
  
• For the felt for the dice rolling I bought this self-adhesive felt
  
• For the foam I used this pelican case foam
  
• For the magnets to keep it closed I used this pretty strong magnets
