asciilifeform, do you have advice on carrying servers in checked baggage? I'm expecting maybe 40kg for mine. Are consumer suitcases adequate, with enough padding material? I was looking at 'Pelican' cases but possibly golden toilet. |

asciilifeform |
jfw: what airline ? |
| 22:06 |
jfw |
Copa |
| 22:06 |
asciilifeform |
good, is what i used when i brought'em there |
| 22:06 |
asciilifeform |
jfw: you bought 2 heavies ? |
| 22:07 |
jfw |
there's 2 dulaps, hopefully rails, and 2 switches |
| 22:07 |
asciilifeform |
ok so then : buy 2 suitcases, no smaller than 30 x 55 x 77 cm. ( i had to get the largest i could find in usa. ) |
| 22:07 |
asciilifeform |
i looked for similar ones in uy, did not find. does not mean that they aren't sold there somewhere. |
| 22:08 |
BingoBoingo |
The switches won't need a giant bag, but they will need a large one. Pack blankets. |
| 22:08 |
asciilifeform |
take 1 old blanket for ea. machine. and various rags for corners. |
| 22:08 |
jfw |
1 server per bag is the idea? |
| 22:09 |
asciilifeform |
jfw: i carried 4, 2 per bag, from usa to uy. incl. iirc the 2 you just bought. |
| 22:09 |
asciilifeform |
it was a very close shave re the absolute weight limit |
| 22:10 |
asciilifeform |
if you put your 2 in 1 bag now, you'll get dinged w/ the 'overweight fee' iirc. |
| 22:11 |
jfw |
if 2nd bag doesn't have to be quite 77cm then I can use existing |
| 22:11 |
asciilifeform |
check copa's www again to make certain of the prices/limit. |
| 22:11 |
jfw |
I did, it's 100lb upper limit, $100 as you say for overweight, and $40 for second bag |
| 22:13 |
asciilifeform |
ok so same as in '18. |
| 22:18 |
jfw |
what's the reason for the 77cm, would the bare server not fit otherwise? |
| 22:18 |
jfw |
I suppose I'll mail-order a big yet cheap bag, only question then is if I really need 2. |
| 22:19 |
asciilifeform |
padding |
| 22:19 |
jfw |
alright then. Thanks asciilifeform |
| 22:19 |
asciilifeform |
jfw: you'd want 2, so to pay the 40 instead of the 100 |
| 22:19 |
jfw |
well that'd be 40 each way afaik |
| 22:20 |
asciilifeform |
see if you can fit 1 empty bag inside the other. |
| 22:23 |
jfw |
ugh, "Each piece can measure up to 62 combined linear inches (158 cm) (height + length + width)" - your minimum adds to 162 |
| 22:25 |
asciilifeform |
jfw: mine was soft around the edges, so passed. if yours is hard plastic, will want to stay in the 162 yes |
| 22:27 |
BingoBoingo |
jfw: asciilifeform's bags are also two wheelers. More internal space than the "spinners" at max airline dimensions |
| 22:28 |
asciilifeform |
unless yer a circus weight lifter, you'll want wheels. |
| 22:29 |
jfw |
agreed |
| 22:29 |
BingoBoingo |
Right, but 2 versus 4 matters when going to 4 loses substantial internal space |
