    Hey, I was just wondering if anyone knows any shops in Dublin where I could buy either potassium or sodium cyanide. I'm trying to finish off some jewelry I'm making at the moment.

    No, I mean a gold ring I'm working with at the moment. Any places you know of?

    What does the cyanide do to the jewellery?
    Make sure you decompose it properly before disposing of it, bleach should do the trick.

    Yeah there's not a snowball's chance in hell of an individual buying cyanide for that sort of purpose these days. Aldrich, the principal supplier of chemicals to the market here requires reams of risk assessments and justification of the use of these compounds - and that's for legitimate R&D purpose in large academic and industrial surrounds.

    Potassium Cyanide, I suggest you look up an MSDS for it on google, but as far as I know the LD50 for it works out to about 100mg for an adult. It's use is even restricted in research to absolute necessity.
    Might I suggest you are infact looking for something else, or to commit murder (which would most likely lead to death by miss adventure on you behalf).
