Our design (until now) has 10-32 bolts sticking up from a piece of c-channel, mounted in individual springs. We really need about 1/4" of clearance for this to work. When we just had one old warped tote (probably one we inherited from a defunct team), we assumed it had been left out in the Louisiana sun for too long. If they're shipping this way, and in at least one case the whole set was like this, it raises the possibility that all the totes at regional might be like this. I suspect we're back to the drawing board.

THANKS CD!
