Bear in mind those cadmium whiskers are extremely toxic as are the fumes from silver solder which contains cadmium. 

Handle any cad plated chassis with gloves and avoid actual contact. If you were like me, ther ewere lots of cad plated Hammond chassis that got the bare hand treatment in the 50's and 60's.
