Packaging

The SwordM comes in an extremely large box, but since the case is made of all aluminum it is not that heavy. On the back of the box there are diagrams and descriptions of some of the features of the SwordM.

Opening up the box we can see that it is well protected with big pieces of thick Styrofoam. After taking those off the case is wrapped in a protective cloth that makes sure nothing will scratch the outside of the case.

The goodies that come with the case are the top and bottom fins, 4 wheels, 2 bags of screws, some cable ties, and 2 extra bezel covers.
