They see some concealed custom machined weapon like that, and I guarantee you're in the pokey...yeah, try to get them to do a web search to show that you didn't make this, and it's commercially available etc. ....but by that time, your flight has departed, and you've been "under the bright light" for hours... This really could cause someone a real problem. I believe I will get a motor and travel with that. What notoriety for the manufacturers if someone did "do a bad thing" using an M6/75 1.4 (best handle for "the job" IMO) and a RabidWinder... Now, what about those little stylus that come with every PDA you buy? Austin - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
