Yikes, I'm sorry guys... Though I'm sure that if shipping is less than the alternative, perhaps its worth it to see if someone here can purchase and ship to you direct, there are always ways around this, and I would think shipping from Pennsylvania to the UK is less then to Japan.

Yep, I reckon you could quite easily.
I would imagine its just a matter of getting the dimensions correct and centre of gravity

The centre of gravity is pretty much in line with the cam locks.
