17. Another view of the completed shipping sandwich. Note the double thickness on one side and the triple thickness on the other. Five layers total should be well enough to protect my package during shipping, but there have been times when the USPS has seen fit to prove me wrong. Hmmm, if the shipment is really expensive, I'll buy some insurance to play it safe.

19. ...flipping the package over, I pull the tape up and over to seal on the back side of package.
20. I tape up any seams that run down the middle of the package.
