If you want sparks that are only on the order of the ones you make shuffling
on a floor, try one of the anti-static pistols sold at stereo stores.
These have a lever trigger that distorts a peiziolectric crystal, making
a charge dissipated by one or two needle-like electrodes.
The idea of these is to discharge vinyl disks to keep them from attracting
dust.
They cost $30 or so.
