Take a day trip. Northeast corridor to NYC then up to Albany Rennsalier. I would imagine that Dave would be willing to pick you up or deliver.
Train to be miserable...
that way when the real misery starts you won't notice.

Dave's place is on your way up to Totally Turning and Showcase in Saratoga Springs in March.
I got my turtleback Emmertt's from Dave from Dave and I am very happy with it (even if I did pay him significantly more than what he is asking for this one). The asking price on this one is so low that I have to keep convincing myself that I do not need 2 of them.
Also, as others have mentioned, Dave is one of the good sellers here. We do have a bunch of good ones here and he is one of them.
If you pick up in person and you ask nicely, Mrs Dave might try to offer more bargain sale prices for stuff in Dave's shop.

That's certainly an idea. I could probably find someone to make me a crate. I'm guesstimating around 110 pounds crated up.
