Transport them by car.
Seriously, I believe you are asking for the impossible. They are most
likely to want to examing any unconventional object - and cylinders are
certainly that. They will want to see that none contains explosive
material, that the wax will not outgas poison. You might do best to work
with a shipper such as UPS or FedEx to send them as freight; they may
have a scheme for ensuring good treatment. But to ship them as luggage
or (worse) to carry by hand is asking for examination by those without
knowledge or concern.
