It weighed about 18kg's so she got me to take stuff out of it and put it in my checked in baggage. While doing this I inadvertently removed a little plastic container which housed my bolts and batteries and placed them in my hand carry, from then on it was all down hill.

The copper was much like your male security man.

Aussie customs is another story, you need your paperwork in order for them.

19kg is my personal best for carry on. Those steel plates of neckshots are farking heavy!
