My complete 701 kit will be ready for pickup Jan 19th. I've been researching how to get it from Zenith to North Texas (Wylie). I now have access to a covered, 7x14 trailer. I know the crate ($490) will fit, but I was wondering if any of the builders out there have any experience with moving an uncrated kit? I have 30+ furniture blankets/pads and a couple of rolls of corrugated cardboard. I'll be alone for the pickup, but I'm told the staff will be able to lend some assistance with the load. any thoughts/comments would be appreciated.

All good Bob. I like the flat storage loft idea. I'll probably do that while waiting for the kit. I've about completed a 13' worktable ... heavy as the dickens but I put it on casters.
