Hi all,
I have never taken my bins on a plane trip and I wondered if anyone has experience moving them through airport security. I would like to take them as carry-on luggage, but I just wonder how the x-ray screeners view the bins. Is it just expected that you will have to unpack them and show that these two metalic tubes are, in fact, bins and not some dangerous device?
Thanks to all for the input,

I took mine to South Africa from London Heathrow last October, with my camera and all my lenses,in my hand baggage. No problems either way. Though knowing the paranoia which exists at US airports, any thing can happen, though I had no problems a couple of weeks ago with my camera, but no bins when flying to and from Phoenix.
