Packing for Defcon:Not wanting the TSA to give me a colonoscopy.

Ship it.  Track it and insure it.  It would suck to have it taken by TSA.

Hi All,
    I'm going to be bringing some odd stuff to Defcon, and I'll be
flying. The PHUKD devices and home brew stuff may look odd to the
inspectors, and I know some of you have brought odd items like
lockpicks. I know the safest bet is to ship the stuff to the hotel,
but I hate having my gear out of my control. I'm thinking this would
even make a cool article: How not to get reamed by the TSA. Here are
the key points:

1. Ever taken home brew electronics with you?
2. Did the TSA raise eyebrows?
3. How about lockpicks and other items?
4. How easy are TSA approved locks to pick? I imagine easy since
there are standardized.

I'm guessing home brew electronics is safer stuff to bring than home
brew chemicals at least. Side note: If you have a prescription for a
controlled substance, I wander what happens if the K9s flag your
luggage?
