I don't think 100mg is all that dangerous if you are careful with it. I do wear nitrile gloves when handling it in bulk and make sure I have good ventilation, as in a fan of some sort blowing the fumes away from me, but once it's in a 30 or 60 milliliter bottle with a dropper, just normal cautions for handling liquids that you don't want to touch should work. Plus 100mg does go a lot further.

Quote Exactly from the DYI Forum: READ AND HANDLE 100MG NICOTINE AT YOUR OWN RISK:
•Nicotine is an extremely toxic substance - more so than arsenic, milligram for milligram. Its extraction, storage and use in e-liquid pose a significant risk to the user and anyone who might come into contact with it.
•Never allow nicotine to touch your skin or allow it to build up in the atmosphere. Always wear suitable protective clothing and keep workspaces well ventilated.
•Extreme caution must always be applied in the handling of nicotine, especially where children are concerned - a drop of e-liquid that might make a long-term smoker feel sick will likely kill a child.
•All items contaminated by nicotine extraction or e-liquid mixing must be cleaned or disposed of accordingly. Treat it as toxic waste - do not allow it to pollute the environment or remain unattended or unsecured at any time. Contact your local authority to find what provisions there are for hazardous waste disposal before you attempt any e-liquid production.
•E-liquid and all substances used in its production must be stored securely away from children and pets and in child-proof bottles.
•Appropriate care must be taken to safeguard against fire-hazards. Many ingredients in e-liquid are highly flammable, as are many substances used in the extraction of nicotine.
This is why I buy my base liquid at 24 mg nicotine in 100% PG base (which is already diluted) and then dilute it further with PG to whatever preferred level I want. It is no more expensive than purchasing the nicotine separately from the PG and VG. Wizard Labs has almost every percentage you would want already mixed which limits your exposure to pure nicotine and accidental nicotine sickness or even death.
Keep in mind a few things -
ECF does have a number of legal risks being taken, as does any organization providing DIY information, simply by having the DIY forum so they are going to be as cautious as their attorneys tell them to be. There are lots of dangerous chemicals in every house, that if mishandled, can easily kill. Heck, look at how many people manage to kill themselves using a generator or kerosene/propane heater. Some people have more experience handling "dangerous" chemicals and take precautions simply as part of their normal practices with any chemicals. Plus 100mg nicotine takes up a lot less space in the freezer.
I am certainly not advocating that anyone should use 100mg nicotine or even get involved in DIY, for that matter. I am saying that if common sense and a basic set of precautions are followed it is a relatively safe thing to do, at least for me. We each know our own capabilities and limitations, or should as adults, and can make our own judgments.
