Both fit into a bottle carry with a strap. I bring it through TSA empty, and fill (when I remember) it inside.<br /><br />In my liquids bag is a 3 ounce bottle of 95% alcohol hand sanitizer. In my dopp kit is an alcohol stove made from a couple of 5 ounce juice cans (zenstoves.net). In my carry on is a cup stand made from bent wire. Combine it all and I've got a stove that lets me heat water anywhere with a minimum of fuss.<br /><br />FYI - they make a 5 inch long Vise Grip.

You may get some hassle but you can wear them on the plane AFAIK.<BR/><BR/>A walking cane is another item that is ok AFAIK. I can't see them not allowing someone with a bad knee or ankle from having a cane.<BR/><BR/>Stay safe and have fun with the TSA.Bitmaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08545664971977374552noreply@blogger.com
