Hi George,
 
Well, the CRATE was nicely made of "manufactured" chip board.

Good job no one asked about the engine SKID inside.  Probably a tonne and
a half of nice fresh juicy Pennsylvania white oak.  I guess the EU hasn't
heard (yet) about the dreaded white oak nema-toad.  Trust me, that is one
bad-assed frog with ATTITUDE!

See ya,  Arnie
