I'm wondering if this is safe?
I scrape the components off the boards with a hammer/chisel and put them in a bucket.
I put tap water in a bucket and swised them around, and rinsed them through a colander.
I used my hands to take the pieces out, It only took about half an hour. (including the tiny broken pieces that went through the colander.)
Should I be worried about anything? I washed my hands with soapy water afterwards.
Nothing should have dissolved since it was just tap water, but I'm worried about any of the tiny pieces of MLCCs (or nickel, copper etc.) that I was picking out with my wet hands.
Edit - is there any worry about metal toxicity from this? I didn't get any water in my mouth or eyes, just on my hands.
