Dear Betsy,

I came upon your note rater late, but I have something that may work.
The attachment is a cut diagram for producing travel frames. The frame
of the painting is fitted with oz clips; they are simple device so your
crew will work it out. A bolt is located through the travel frame
meeting up with the located oz clip simple tighten the bolt and the
piece is ready for shipping. I also like to use chor-o-plast(sp?) as the
crates "skin". Triple ply cardboard can also be used or simply attach
plastic sheeting.

Hope it all goes your way.

Best

Subject: RE: OZ clips

Can anyone provide me with instructions or a source for instructions to
craft a painting frame using oz clips. This will be used primarily for
storage of a very large mural but will help us in the event we need to
move it. Our exhibits staff is not familiar with making traveling
painting frames or oz clips but they are willing to do it if I can
provide them with instructions. Thanks.
