Hi there

    I just returned to Australia after being in NYC for six months and I
    managed to (unknowingly) fly all the way pack with a set of polishing
    drill bits in my handbag. In my last local flight in Australia, the
    security guy was not impressed! "Do you have a pack of nails in
    there?" (Jetlagged and exhausted I just said, "huh?"). However I
    managed to get through every other security screen. 

    You can get through with silver sheet, and stones, bench pin okay.
    Files would be a big 'no way' as would drill bits, gravers, snips.
    These would all have to be checked through. They might also get
    thingy about wire. I bought some in Sydney one time when I was there
    (to save on shipping costs and because I bought a bunch of other
    things) and they thought I might be able to use it to bind someone
    (as if - that just cost me a fortune, I was thinking). 

    Get some of those orange plastic suitcase 'locks' and check all that
    stuff through. 

    Have fun at the workshop! 

Nola
