What's the thought...am I asking for trouble trying to take a Ryobi electric sander (http://www.ryobitools.com/catalog/po...orded/CFS1503K) aboard a flight from PDX to Denver as a carry-on.

It comes in a small nylon bag about the size of a kid's lunch box. You can see it and the bag at the ryobi website I posted above.

Folks my dear sis just bought a condo. Great place, except ALL the bathroom doors are sticking slightly at the top -- a little embarassing for her. An easy fix, but all her and her friends are all thumbs. Since I was going her way anyway, thought I might fix it for her....but don't want to lose my sander at security. And don't want to pay $25 to check it as baggage.
