    I have flown with hand tools in my checked luggage without a single
    problem, both before and since 9/11. (In fact, I am in Calgary right
    now, having brought tools for a workshop at the Alberta College of
    Art and Design, where Charles Lewton-Brain is chair of the metals
    department.) 

    My tool box is plastic and measures about 6"x8"x15". It is packed
    with tools. On the outside of the toolbox is a large label that
    says, JEWELRY TOOLS along with my business card. The tool box is
    packed into my luggage, surrounded by clothing, etc. 

    When I arrive, I usually find a card indicating that the bag was
    inspected. But my tools have always appeared untouched within the
    tool box.
