Flockbox limitations
(This also applies to all the types of static grass applicators out there, whether used upside down with the Flockbox as shown below or upright using the sieving method)The Flockbox can struggle getting grass in between groups of figures that are larger than 15mm such as the popular 28mm scale.
It can handle single figures but groups are affected. I suggest you use the Flockbox to make grass tufts instead.The charge that attracts the grass flock is trying to seek the quickest way to Earth, with the larger figures it has to travel further past the taller figures to get to the base area.
So most of the grass will stick to the figures with a limited amount being able to travel past the metal or plastic figures. See my picture below.

Other items supplied with the Flockbox:

  • Blue Earth cable as shown in the pictures
  • Sample bag of 1mm green grass 50g
  • Sample bag of 2mm green grass 15g
  • Sample bag of 4mm green grass 15g
  • A sample of silicone paper for making tufts
  • Printed instructions

Flockbox is NOT recommended for people with heart pacemakers or other internal medical electronic devices as it has not been tested for them.
It is possible to sustain static shocks when holding the blue Earth lead and touching the metal tray, I have had countless static shocks which are more of a surprise than painful.
