Rick,
I did say to tape four tubes, but I
didn't say that each WAYBILL had to have
5 kilos. The
Waybill issue is to reduce the number of parcels (4 tubes taped together should weight 20 kilos maximum and be considered
1 parcel
constituted by four tubes

If this is the case should we then opt to ship more and lighter packages rather than fewer and heavier packages ?
If this has already been covered then please excuse me I can be somewhat dense at times ; sometimes I need things spelled out more clearly .

No problem. The first part of the answer replies to the second one and it is good for everyone.
Everything boils to the same old question put into the present context:
which is heavier? 5 kilos of raw cotton of 5 kilos of steel?
Furthermore to save weight, one can place 2 swords in one tube. It then means that one tube's weight is split into two swords.
There can be many variations.
Ron, I'll be with you in about 1 hour, sorry but its me alone on this side of planning and coordinating
