It arrived Fedex weighing 150#'s and it took 2 men to get it off the truck and into the garage.We then (somehow) got it into a wheelbarrow and into my studio. In this 8' X 12' behemoth the braids are like ship anchor rope...3" wide and 2" thick...made with many thicknesses of material. After removing one row and repairing many broken, separated braid sections, I tapered the huge end (with difficulty), shampooed it and sent it home. It will never wear out!
