Shipping heavy equipment

  110 pounds - it's not *that* big. It can go FedEx (149 pound limit for 
regular FedEx)  as well as UPS - but that would be "pricey".

   You might check out the USPS - if it was packed well, and within the 
"length+girth" bullshit that they use.

   (Have you considered disassembling it partially and using more than one 
box?)

   Then there's my current favorite, BAX Global, who are usually much less 
than FedEx for the same package to the same address.

   If you do a bit of homework, you might be able to come up with some 
competitive rates, but it ain't gonna be cheap, no matter what.  And if 
you go with FedEx or UPS, be aware that they're raising their rates right 
after the first of the year.

  Cheers

John
