Geoffrey, Ken,

The idea of carrying a published description is of course a brilliant one.

But how do you convince them that this is not a bomb if it looks
like a bomb, and has wires (even if you check the batteries in the
check in luggage separately), and
a ticking mechanism inside:-)

Besides that, they are not only interested in bombs.
(Once I had nail clippers seized; little scisors, 2 inches long blades).
And even a nautical sextant makes a perfect weapon: you can easily
crush someone's scull using it, I mean a sextant with a bronze frame, not
a plascic one:-)

Alex.
