Can I bring copper wire on a plane? I'm headed home for thanksgiving and planting some cuttings from Brent at my parent's house. I want to wire up the shimpaku while I'm there, but I'm not checking my bags.
Kind of a silly question...

Depends on who the checkers are.
Coils of wire in a bag will probably send up some red flags.
It could be a problem. I wouldnt be surprised if they search your bag.
I would bring along a bag that you can check in case they insist that it gets checked.

Just mail the wire.

Pack it with your gun as a decoy?

Just drop the wire in the mail to your destination. Coiled wire, copper, could likely be a problem. Save the hassle. USPS it.

Better to ship than possibly losing to TSA

don't plug it in dynamite!
I think tools will be a bigger problem then some wire,
They may check your luggage but they wont take it away, and if so you will have to go back to the check in counter and have it checked in, they normally have carton boxes you get for these cases, i have had multiple times this problem having forgotten a screwdriver or cutter knife and so on in my bag

Just curious. Why do you want to use copper instead of aluminum wire for shimpaku cutting? The reason I ask is that copper is much more expensive than aluminum, so I don't use it for the young trees. But if I had free or low cost copper wire, I would use it.

I have copper wire laying around, and I was sticking to the tried and true copper for conifers rule
