Metallic murcury can't actually be absorbed through the skin, and it can theoretically be handled without protective equipment if you know what you're doing. Not that I would recommend it.
See the crazy stuff that Cody's Lab does on YouTube, and he hasn't gotten poisoned yet:

Mercury poisoning isn't all or nothing. I love love love Cody but also that boy probably has a little mercury poisoning at this point ngl.
No he's been tested and the test came back normal

Holy shit. I'm as surprised as I am happy! Thanks for letting me know.
My friends Dad showed us one time handling it in his hands, he said you just have to be absolutely certain you have no cuts or injuries that would let it get to your bloodstream. That was a long time ago now, today's parents would probably freak.
Ooo I forgot about Cody. Gotta see if he is back to posting videos
He's back and posting fairly regularly again, and better news is that he finally got paid by Google!
He just published a few videos, with more about the Chicken Hole Base
