Amazing video! I was just looking for something like this yesterday to send to someone on how to send pinned insect specimens in the mail.
One comment/addition: make sure to use NON-biodegradable packing "chips" (we call them "peanuts" across the pond) because otherwise pests can infest the packing material.
