Jon.
Sorry, no photograph. I have a small fume hood, such as you might find in a
chem lab, where the
mercury pot is kept. The fuming boxes have sliding covers so very little
escapes. When working
I wear a respirator that have special cartridges that absorb mercury vapor
and halogen gases.
There is an article with some photos several issues back in Post Factory
Journal.
Best wishes,
Bob Schramm
