| 680236 | 2008-06-19 09:07:00 | Don't quote me on this, but I think it is R18 - probably not a legal requirement, but most likely an industry best-practice. Dry ice can be dangerous if not used safely - e.g if someone tries swallowing a piece, for example. | somebody (208) | ||
| 680237 | 2008-06-19 09:16:00 | BOC will sell you dry ice, doesn't say anything about legal age requirements though: www.boc-gases.com |

Haha, i will most likely get my father to come in , it may look a lil suspect if a 16 year old guy goes in for dry ice lol... :D We have been doing a whole lot of awesome sh&# with it in science at school and i wana try it here... I have read all of the safety warning things... I would hate to swallow a block of ice thats -78 degrees lol.:lol: I also wana get into some "extreme" (XD) overclocking with my old pc ;) For anyone interested, here is a Pdf about it pgw100.portal.gases.boc.com Thanks for the info, William |
