In the olden days of the 1950's-'60's, my Dad sold/swapped molds constantly. He always put them inside paper towel/toilet paper tubes. Of course molds (except 8-10cav H&G) were smaller back then.
This needs to be reread once in a while....
Agreed on the re-read, just received some loose in box. Simple rubberband would suffice. Fortunately no damage. Goes for shipping anything, take 5 minutes and pack correctly.
I pack things the way I would want them packed if they were being sent to me.
I put at least two zip ties around moulds.
I disassemble the mounds and shrink wrap them with my Costco food saver. The screws and parts go in a ziplock. Never had an issue shipping this way.
Agree, no rubber bands.. no matter how much you clean it, there always seems to be just enough residual solvent or oil that eats up rubber bands right quick!
I wrap the mould halves separately. That way the blocks do not rub and bump one another along the ride.
