Title: cast iron column broken in two in shipment
Review: Delta, if you are reading this, the problem of cast iron breakage is in your packing...there are two reasonable and economic ways to fix your problem.ONE..use a minimum of six inces of molded styrofoam at the edge of the base. A coulpe inches of styrofoam at the base edge is not going to dampen the shock on a unit this heavy in the event it is dropped. Even if it is only a foot or so....and or,TWO..disconnect the column from the base. You seperate the column and motor from the base during shipping and I think your problem is solved. Now if the unit is dropped during shipping you will not have the kinetic energy transfering to the column and motor which is brittle and top heavy. Newton's 4th law of motion still applies today...just remove the weak linkDelta, why do you take so long to address this issue???P.S. Sorry Norm
