The Lawrence Hall of Science started making accelerator trees paper weight back in the 70's. They were round 2" Lucite rods 6 inches tall. They were made at the Lawrence National Lab, Berkeley. A grad student would load the rods at the end of the accelerator between tests; the particle would crash into the road fracturing the Lucite. The trees helped fund some small projects at Lawrence National Labs.

Unless it's a different process than what's being talked about in the linked article the fractures don't occur until the Lucite is discharged.
