    Hi,

    I need to transport one Robo3d from Canada to Europe by plane and unfortunately I don't have the original packaging.

    Any suggestions?

    Moving company or Storage rental may have a box big enough as well as a lot of packing peanuts to secure everything. Or you could just DHL ship it, since it is used and for personal use there may be exceptions to tariffs that apply. After that I have no idea.

    I'd suggest using packing paper or foam rubber to secure any bits that normally move (the X/Y/Z axis).
