Sorry this has taken so long…it’s been quite a week!
Aodhán’s soundbox, at the base, is 3.5″ deep, or 4.5″ if you include where the pillar juts out from the soundbox, and 11″ wide (from side to side).

Just thought I’d chime in and add that this is exactly the method Laurie Riley recommends in her “The Harper’s Handbook” for carrying a harp that is too big to be picked up by the pillar (which is going to be most harps other than lap harps).
It may take a few days, but the scent will in all likelihood eventually go away.
I’m often surprised at how easily harps pick up odors (or maybe we just notice it more, because they rest near our faces).
Well, it pretty much depends on:
1) How you’re tuned
2) Which levers you have set (assuming a lever harp here)
If you’re trying to figure it out from sheet music, it depends on the sharps and flats in the key signature.
Generally speaking, if you’re tuned to a diatonic C scale (i.e., C to C, with no sharps or flats), you’re going to be in either the key of C major or or B minor.

Looks nice! And a good, sturdy arrangement too! You’re a busy fellow, Liam!
Meanwhile, Aodhán is busily learning “Silent Night.”
The first thing that springs to mind is to have a friend in the U.S. order it and drive it across the border.
Not the best option, I know.
