Whee!
A security researcher had a thought: what could you build that would be dangerous/deadly/destructive based on materials that you could buy inside the security barrier of an airport, using a multitool that was approved by the TSA?
The results are not pleasant: a blunderbuss shotgun, nunchucks, a spiked mace, and a suitcase bomb that took one and a half fire extinguishers to put out. He notified the TSA on four occasions before publishing and was thanked, but they never said they were doing anything. He was visited by some FBI agents and had a pleasant discussion, and that was about that.
