Ball Milling Static Mitigation?

So since black powder is impossible to find near me I thought I’d try making my own. I’m familiar with basic chemistry and flammable chemicals. I’d like to just make small batches (200-300 grams) in a rock tumbler… Thing is, almost every rock tumbler I see has a plastic tumbler. I even see people making their own tumblers and using PVC pipe. How worried about static should I be? I know static is a major issue for wood workers with PVC dust collection routing.

My Vulcan wife, who's six months pregnant, brought home a Sehlat, saying every Vulcan child needs one... Also being a domesticated one he "probably will not try and consume you."

Thing is I am pretty sure that thing doesn't like me... He's taken over my side of the bed, he'll growl at me if I am sitting with my wife and he wishes to be pet, and he ate half my shoes... Litteraly he ate every left shoe...

I tried the squirt gun thing you might try on an earth feline, but he ate the squirt gun, then went and cuddled with my wife...

My wife says I'm over reacting and he just needs to acclimate to being around a human...
