This is a good question and I’ll be looking for the answers too. One thing I’m worried about is plastic up against the wood. I’ve seen plastic do bad things to other finished surfaces so is there a chance bubble wrap could damage wood or the finish during shipment? I was thinking wrapping things in newspaper, but then ink can come off the paper too and get on the finish. Maybe a thin layer of that foam up against the wood and then buddle wrap over that?
