This video was a two month journey digging into the physics of sandstorms, and how particle collisions create electric charge separation. After about 8 rebuilds, I settled on something that displayed insane levels of static charge, and was just shy of artificial lightning. The project was made better with the assistance of @3DPrintingNerd  , and I couldn't have printed my 80 lbs of plastic, without the help of Pooch from Prusa.
