The Flockbox is a versatile flocking device that allows flocking of small to medium size objects. You can either hold an object over the metal plate to be coated with flock or you can use the cables to attach a metal sieve and flock a larger area such as a model railway board to produce realistic looking grass areas. What is Flock? 'Flock' is nylon fibres like very short hair and is available in a wide range of colours and lengths. Flock is used to create the velvet feel on objects such as jewelry boxes, car dashboards, toys or longer flock can be used to create realistic looking grasses in miniature. How does the Flockbox work? The Flockbox uses an electrostatic charge to attract the nylon flock fibres onto a glued surface, the flock fibres jump towards that object and sit in the glue standing on their ends to produce a uniform carpet layer. My website warpainter.net shows some of the many uses for the Flockbox. There will be countless other applications it can be used for by imaginative arts and crafts users. How did the Flockbox originate? I used to be a full time wargame figure painter who was frustrated with quality of the model grasses available and the limitations of the very expensive flocking devices at the time. This is where my inspiration to develop the Flockbox originated. Please note I invented this metal plate on a box type flock applicator so beware of any imitation devices using my idea. For me flocking different items is fun, compelling and a creative experience I hope you will experience the same satisfaction. Flockbox reviews The Flockbox has attained a great reputation and has has equally good reviews. The 'Beasts of war' guys have made a couple video reviews along with 'Model dad's' and the terrain tutor. There are more reviews all of which can be found on my website warpainter.net/FBreviews.html Flockbox features
Runs from a 9v (PP3) battery which is sufficient for most work
Also runs from a mains DC power adapter at 9v or 12v which gives a more powerful performance
Comes with quality 900mm cables red and green to match the red and green sockets on the Flockbox
The cables are long enough to work away from the Flockbox to flock areas such as model terrain
