Rough-cut. My mom was getting rid of it, and I figured we could use
it. It was flat enough to just stick in the suitcase without being a
major hassle. If I'd tried shipping it instead, I'd have needed yet
another box for that, as it was too long for any of the boxes I was
already shipping from her place to mine.
I've also transported pots and pans in my checked luggage at other
times. I think the saw is the weirdest thing I've ever checked, though.
