Now it can be used with more precision than before.
Here is a link through Scenic Express.

I bought the Noch Grassmaster together with a friend, so half costs for each.
It works fine.

I found for me, that it is good to apply the grass on a uneven surface, if you want to avoid a golf lawn look. In the shown example I used "iceland moss" for the ground.
Also, I used dark green and faded grass fibers together.

I have an "What I Did" about making a D.I.Y. static grass device from an electric fly swatter ...

Si...in an old Narrow Gauge Down Under, a fellow showed how to make a grass applicator for about $10 (US or AUS) which did what the 'spensive job does! Just don't tell anybody about this!

Hi all!
I designed my own Grassmaster.
I 3D printed it on my own printer and bought the electronics online.
It's assembled now.

First test of the home-built grassmaster with a 9 volt battery for power and Woodland scenics short grass.

Tomorrow I will test with the 12 volt trafo and longer grass.
I was surprised how strong the static field is.
The hair on my hand stands straight up when I get close ... The grass gets really dense and stands up really nice.
This project gives a good result.
The cost was really affordable.
When summarizing every component and the material for the 3D print, it cost me roughly $50!
Under half of what equal products on the market costs with the same specs.
