Dimethyl sulfate hell

[El_Zorro]

Alright, where the hell does a non-professional chemist get DMS??  I guess I could make some MeI, but I don't have LG RP, and I don't feel like getting the HUGE amounts of matchbooks that would be required to make the amount of MeI worthwhile.  I've thought about saying fuck it and just running a reaction like the one at Rhodium's site to make diethyl sulfate, just substituting methanol.

But then, there's also the huge risk of cancer.   And there's this little warning

(Rhodium: "Dimethyl sulfate", Chemistry Discourse) about making it yourself from Rhodium, who also thinks that it's not really quite as dangerous as people make it out to be, provided proper lab procedures are carried out.  So that just makes me wonder just how dangerous making it yourself would actually be.  Would that reaction even work?  Do any bees have any experience with it?  Does anyone have any thoughts on DMS?

There is a big difference between DMS and DMS.  That is, dimethyl sulfide, and dimethyl sulfate.  Threw me off for a second reading it until I realized that both share the same acronym.

Zorro: If you have a fume hood, then making it yourself is no problem, it has been discussed extensively by Halfapint and Antoncho et al.
