Easy solution is 'DON'T DO THAT'

If you are too worried about shocks, clip the cord off a hair dryer and use it on the radio. The newer ones have a GFCI in the plug box. I find hair dryers in thrift stores for a buck to $3 or 4.

I did a wooden Airline for my GFs son-in-law last year. It was wood and floating ground with safety caps. I added the hair dryer cord as extra measure. She doesn't want to harm him .. yet.
