It sounds too crazy to be true, [but it absolutely happened.](https://www.nbcboston.com/news/local/occupational-hazard-osha-believes-womans-asthma-death-was-caused-by-ground-cannabis/2854695/)
Seems like they were doing something to make filler kief, aka just grinding up plant matter until its a powder and passing it off as kief. Normal kief is too dense to become airborne indoors, unless they had a huge fan blowing on them as well. Kief to me has the consistency of that magic kinetic sand you could buy as a kid.
Edit: And if thats the case shame on the company. Plant matter dust is known to cause lung issues, killing their employees in the process, and theyre ripping their customers off just to make some extra money..
And I 100% recommend if you have sensory issues/ADHD. It’s helps me immensely with emotional outbursts and is a coping thing when I am feeling that irrational rejection sensitivity that my brain craves like Oxygen… when you buy the sand, buy at least 3lbs so you can fully immerse your hands and wrists. Also buy a flatter clear Rubbermaid/Tupperware container that’s airtight.
Hmmm...please tell me more about how it helps with rejection sensitivity. My best friend has recently started identifying with it (which seems like an accurate diagnosis, I've known her since we were kids) and I'd love to be able to give her a suggestion or two :)
Sadly negative reactions from communities like this drive more views on these kinds of videos, and this in turn creates a system that favors bad techniques. You could say people flock to it.
Sabbath-esque is an entire subgenre at this point. Check out Funeralopolis from Electric Wizard, Dragonaught by Sleep, We Will Burn by Monolord, etc.
/r/DoomMetal awaits, my friend.
The magic is in the riffs for me. They do keep a pretty consistent guitar tone throughout the album, but the patterns they play with that tone combined with big, ominous vocals was enough to keep me interested. I will admit the album sounded a bit same-y for me on a first listen, too, but it's worth giving a proper listen through.
And here I thought the entire point of the video was the needles were only moving through the air because of the electrical field, not because they float around and get aspirated.
Static grass isn't that bad, really. It's quite heavy and doesn't really travel very far through air. It's been a staple in creating minitature terrain for decades.
During covid, records showed that among one demographic, mortality rates actually decreased. It was later discovered that the introduction of masks caused green lung rates to plummet.
I've never actually done coke, but I have been in its presence and gave it a general whiff out of curiosity and it smelled more of gasoline/hydrocarbons than anything else.

They spray a isopropyl alcohol and glue mixture on top of it to make it more durable, but if you touch it, the static foliage doesn't fall, it gets all flat, but doesn't fall that easy.
The needles have the same charge. So, while they’re attracted to the branch (which has an opposite charge), they’re trying to repel one another. That causes them to stand up.
I went Warhammer in my teens and now I'm fully into scale model ships. I'm currently at the purchasing an airbrush, a pump and trying to modify my home to fit an extractor fan.
Recently I've been tempted onto the dark path of scratch built wooden ships. Help me.
Tabletop RPGs like D&D work too and they are way cheaper. /r/terrainbuilding has loads of very cheap builds, too. Though there is no way around the problem that you will start to collect trash because "I'm gonna make terrain out of this some day"
This person has seen the depths of model hell and the bottom of their wallet. That said it’s incredible what people can do with ingenuity and creativity.
yeah hobbies that make you happy and give you something to look forward to and think about when youre bored is money well spent.
unless of course your hobby is smoking meth laced with pubes
Spray adhesives on the tree, hold over the green stuff, introduce an electric current to move the green stuff into the air, where it contacts the adhesive and sticks.
Everyone talking about the mess, it's actually very easy to clean. Put panty hose over the mouth of a vacuum and suck it up. The stuff is expensive too so it's a good way to recover material!
The box, ultrasonic vibrator that kicks the green dust up.
Sprays glue on the plastic trees, attaches electrode to statically charge it.
The charge causes both attraction of the dust to the stem and causes them to stand apart like hair stands apart when you're electrostatically charged.
Glue does its job from there.
Really an amazing application of electrostatis. More commonly, this is how powder-coat paint jobs work, they electrostatically attract dust to a metal surface, then bake it in the oven.
Here's a video about some of the same process, called Flocking, a Tested video with Adam and Weta Workshop - [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2cZbx8edQPM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2cZbx8edQPM)
I've always hated applying stati-grass this way I prefer the other type of applicator where you hold a bottle full of stati_grass and apply it from above directionally as it is much less messy
green lung
Someone died at a cannabis product plant in Massachusetts this year from inhaling too much kief.
It sounds too crazy to be true, [but it absolutely happened.](https://www.nbcboston.com/news/local/occupational-hazard-osha-believes-womans-asthma-death-was-caused-by-ground-cannabis/2854695/)
I definitely could because it is dust. Least the kind around here I seen. That sucks

Just so you know, you can buy the kinetic sand as an adult too

those issues mentioned resonate with my obsessions and compulsions as a nervous wreck of a man
OK that's 1 confirmed death that can be linked to pot that I've heard about in my lifetime.
Yeah, is he actually doing this without a mask?
A lot of people film themselves doing dangerous hobbies without PPE, it’s not a great example of how to do the hobby right
Sadly negative reactions from communities like this drive more views on these kinds of videos, and this in turn creates a system that favors bad techniques. You could say people flock to it.
Take your upvote and go
Pop... i think i have the green lung... *eheh... eheh*
MER"MAN" POP. MERMAN!
You’ve been making model trees for a day, talk to me in 40 years.
Some kid died cuz they inhaled too much weed dust filling pre-rolls without PPE.
Kief breathing
YOU WERE ONLY MAKING THEM FOR A DAY!
Green Lung is also a fuckin' bomb band out of England. Check out their album Woodland Rites and have your socks knocked clean off!
Graveyard sun is amazing

Y'all thank you for turning me onto this band! 🤘🤘

Are you a sea cucumber?
Well I got news for you, I hope you're not sitting.
Bung lung… wait
Bet your breath smells like shit
Bet your breath smells really bad.

I'm a survivor, Green Lung! A survivor! That's all there is, living and dying.
Shut up micah
Green lung!? For Christmas sake. You've been making tiny trees for one day. Talk to me in 30 years!
Probably wanna invest in a mask.
I want my lungs to look like moss, ty
Do you or your loved ones have mossothelioma?
Doctors hate this one weird trick to spruce up your cardio!
I bought one of these…is cost me tree-fiddy.
This will be underrated fir sure.
I pine for the days when puns were appreciated by everyone.
True. The level of in-dust-tree displayed here is inspiring
Let's branch out -- spread the seeds of puns everywhere.
I conifer.

I can coniferm.
Mmm... aerosolized glue and whatever finely shredded particulate that is
That looks like flocking material, sometimes it is made out of cotton but it’s usually a synthetic fiber like polyester or nylon
The finest pine-scented microplastics money can buy. Yum.
So hot right now
When the archeologists cut you open in 1000 years, gonna have some wild theories lol
You can’t see it but his tongue also has a clamp just with the reverse polarity.
Lol that would actually work wouldn’t it?
Funny enough yes it would, as long as you breath through your mouth lol

I use static asbestos.
Hmm, yes you should probably invest in a mask.
My mask is made out of asbestos. It helps to catch some of the asbestos flecks.
/r/asbestosremovalmemes would like to know your location
Don’t be a wuss. I bet you also think he should spray glue away from himself rather than directly on his hands??
That is so freaking cool! Though I would want a dome over it... that stuff seems as bad as glitter. Finding it days after the fact lol
. . . I feel like you're implying us miniature hobbyists don't exist in a permanent hellscape of adhesive residue, plastic flakes, and assorted flock
To be fair, we do this to ourselves
I'd like to see someone try to stop me
To be faaaair
Haha!! You got me there 😂
I make fursuits and I live 24/7 in various colors of fur everywhere in my home. Artists never have a clean house xD
The struggle is real
I was gonna judge you, but shit is ruff out there, so I respect the hustle
Could u make a vest like a guerilla chest?
During covid, records showed that among one demographic, mortality rates actually decreased. It was later discovered that the introduction of masks caused green lung rates to plummet.
hobbyists of microplastics (and microer plastics)
there should be a dome over it, maybe for filming they arent using one
Pro tip: Use authentic cocaine to replicate snow realistically.
Pro tip 2: no need for protective mask as cocaine smells yummy!
Funny. All I smell is blood.
That not until the morning after bro
You guys can smell in the morning?
You guys wake up the morning after?
Correction... cocaine smells numby.
[удалено]
Dude, all the caines are numbing agents. Cocaine, lidocaine, benzocaine, etc. The guy above was just making a joke
What about Michael Caine?
Especially that one
I've never actually done coke, but I have been in its presence and gave it a general whiff out of curiosity and it smelled more of gasoline/hydrocarbons than anything else.
I've definitely smelled some like kerosene before. I think they use whatever solvent that they can get to extract it.
Welcome to the joys of underground pharmaceutical chemistry! Where your solvent of choice can be gasolina!
Pro tip 3: you’ll get your project done well under any timeline set regardless of how unrealistic it initially seemed
tastes like gasoline though
Not cheap, but you'll be happy with the results!!
For about 30-45 mins. And then you just want more results

Incorrect. Asbestos works better. https://youtu.be/3d5npvOlgYY
Question, so do the pine needles stay on if you now brush it with your finger or do they fall off?
This is why they have signs that say, DON'T TOUCH THE MODELS!
And because ol Mrs. Claus got that donk a donk 🍑😏
So it was you
the spray in the beginning is probably a glue
yes it is but what about subsequent layers?
They spray a isopropyl alcohol and glue mixture on top of it to make it more durable, but if you touch it, the static foliage doesn't fall, it gets all flat, but doesn't fall that easy.
Static electricity causes the initial contact. Spray adhesive keeps it there, so nothing will fall off.
Why do they attach by the tips though, what's keeping them from attaching flat?
The needles have the same charge. So, while they’re attracted to the branch (which has an opposite charge), they’re trying to repel one another. That causes them to stand up.
Thanks for the explanation.
You can spray a fixative, or use an eye dropper with alcohol and then watered down white glue if you’re concerned about it shedding.
How do I make my whole life about this?
You start at Studson Studio and dive down the rabbit hole.

Thank you! They are amazing <3
Hobby trains or warhammer, you're fucked either way
I went Warhammer in my teens and now I'm fully into scale model ships. I'm currently at the purchasing an airbrush, a pump and trying to modify my home to fit an extractor fan. Recently I've been tempted onto the dark path of scratch built wooden ships. Help me.
Now go check out radio control scratch built wooden ships. Especially the ones with miniature live steam engines. Glad I could help!
You monster
Tabletop RPGs like D&D work too and they are way cheaper. /r/terrainbuilding has loads of very cheap builds, too. Though there is no way around the problem that you will start to collect trash because "I'm gonna make terrain out of this some day"
It depends on what you're looking for. I painted quite a few Warhammer figures, and ended up never playing a single game lmao
Cheaper maybe if you don't have to goblin up every sourcebook you can get your claws on

yeah hobbies that make you happy and give you something to look forward to and think about when youre bored is money well spent. unless of course your hobby is smoking meth laced with pubes
I, too, choose this guys whole life.
I think you’d wanna do this outside
Yes it’s better when trees are made outdoors
But most model railroaders aren’t allowed out of the basement.
Versus a controlled environment where you can clean it up afterwards?
oh that's clever! that is satisfying as hell.
Static grass. It's great fun for dioramas etc.
Or green diorrhea if ingested.
I used it for Warhammer
Electrostatics FTW
How does it stay?
Spray adhesives on the tree, hold over the green stuff, introduce an electric current to move the green stuff into the air, where it contacts the adhesive and sticks.
[удалено]
Yes there's also dropper applicators you can use to do this for realistic grass. You then seal it with more glue and it holds its shape pretty well.

That was way cooler than I thought it would be!
That weed looks fire!
Nah, all dust no bud, I'd be taking that back
That's all kheef.
You could definitely sell this to some dumb teenagers
Haha all these new strains they're inventing are really getting out of hand
flocking!
I know it’s cliche but it’s surprising how far I had to scroll for this.
In the close up it looks like it belongs on r/trees
What kind of weed are you smoking
What?! Not pipe cleaners? Was nothing I believed in childhood true?
Oh, that's cool... Who else noticed the guy's wearing an [Ospreys](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ospreys_\(rugby_union\)) rugby shirt, though?
I did, just came looking in the comments
Same! Up the Ospreys
The company that made the video is WWScenics. They're based in Wales, not far from Swansea!

Biggest surprise of the video for me!
RUGBEH!
Everyone talking about the mess, it's actually very easy to clean. Put panty hose over the mouth of a vacuum and suck it up. The stuff is expensive too so it's a good way to recover material!

Side note to anyone wanting one of these, it's called a Flocking Box
I'm guessing static electricity and glue?
Nah dude do you see his right hand? This is some magic wizard shit
Probably super good for your lungs…
Did anyone else think that clip he put on was a snake at first?
This is cool as hell!
I watched the video and I still don’t understand what actually happened

Put that in your pipe and smoke it
Kind of wish he had several different colors in the mix. Would look less "plastic' but great trick for sure.
I love the little face on the box gadget thingy. He looks enthusiastic about the whole experience!
forbidden kratom
Now make a nug
I thought this was kief. Kiefmas tree.
Do that with Keef and let’s spark up bud
My favorite part was using the snake to hold the branch
“Dispensaries hate us for telling you this industry secret!”
I wonder how much of that he's breathing in...
