Some bakelite products contain asbestos! If you have a ruined switch that you no longer want, send it to me and I'll get my lab to run a test on it. However, you might not want to know the result

A bit like my radioactive watch; when I was at the Nuclear Medicine Dept. of a Hospital I had them put it under a Gieger counter and the needle shot up. The numerals and hands glow all the time.
Gave off something like 100 counts of radiation per minute.
