Hi thanks for your reactions about this topic.
I've read them but these are all methods of packing which are basicly
known by everyone:
-cotton wool
-bubble wrap
-paper towels
-kitchen film
-soap, rice, etc...
In fact I was trying to find out if there were no newer (and maybe better)
ways of packing.
Just a thought: mica, gelatine or other powder (agar agar) which you can
mix with water and which will settle again as a sort of jelly coating....
or any kind of synthetic foam you can apply and wash of afterwards.
I have also a remark (which has nothing to do with the method of packing)
but if nowadays I would pack shells into soapflakes which I put into
plastic containers in my luggage and travel by plane I would guess I
wouldn't get far knowing that homemade explosives (ANFO) do have the same
appearance.
