Are not most egg cartons these days made of polystyrene or something
similiar? If so, doesn't that material cause ESD?? Seems to me it
does. I have avoided the use of that type, thinking that the answers
to both questions is yes.
I would think that the foam ones are dangerous. There is a 'crackly'
feel to them sometimes!
I pick up metal muffin tins at yard sales, usually for $0.25 or so. Then
I connect them to ground through a 1 megohm resistor. I also have a
metal yard(meter)-stick attached to the front of my workbench which is
similarly grounded, a wrist strap and an anti-static mat. All of these
items are connected to a common ground, through resistors.
