Go to UPS or Fedex (choice is yours) and they have what is called a shipping tube (it's actually triangular in shape) it's used to ship blueprints and stuff.

You should be able to fit it into one of those.

Go to a golf shop and ask for a box that a driver came in.....perfect size to ship a FSTB.

when I bought my fstb, it came in a triangular tube like Gotrice4 said. When I sold the fstb, I kinda did what maxilvr06 said: Took a piece of cardboard, fold in half, cut to size, and tape up the open edges.

Shipping an RSB is even more fun.

In a box.

You can make your own box using some cardboard and tape. Good luck.

Just wrap it in bubble wrap and tape it up good and send it like that.
