    Not quite a dump, but there are so many cool ways to die here.
    The mercury is safe in it's bottle, it's not likely to crawl out.
    Bluedog and I were chasing scorpions the other night, I've got a couple in a container for evil experiments, there's always a chance they can crawl out.

    You would easily get 10g+ out of a old bilge pump float switch, I'm not sure if they are still using it but they use to use mercury switches in them.

    Cheaper just to buy the switch from jaycar. But you're going to need a lot of switches to make up a reasonable volume.
    Each of these switches typically has about 4 grams of mercury in them.
    Interesting it appears there isn't any mercury for sale on ebay, but it is available in tilt switches, but people are asking some amazing prices for them.

    I'm surprised that mercury hasn't become a restricted substance because of its terrorist uses.

    Given the OP hasn't visited the site since making that post almost 5 years ago... thread closed.
