Hello!
Have you guys encountered any problems in taking DIY equipment with you when you travel with an aeroplane? In March this year my CMoy headphone amplifier was confiscated at Heathrow security, because they thought it "looked too much like a bomb". I was very annoyed by the situation, but it shouldn't have come as any kind of surprise as the times are what they are.
Probably the standards are different with carry-on luggage and the luggage in the cargo hold. At the security they said I should have put it in the cargo instead, but I was concerned that the metal candy box that I had built the amp in could have suffered damage there.
