Freight House by Laserkit Pt.2

Few years back I made a batch of tufts with my static grass applicator. Although I have also commercial ones as well I tend to use home made tufts more often. The other day I wanted to "plant" few of them on Canal & Third diorama but I had nothing left from the first batch. It isn't difficult to make the tufts so I decided to make a new batch. I had two non-stick aluminum foil sheets and without thinking I made few more out of regular aluminum foil. The next day I tried removing the tufts from regular sheets and I couldn't. Only then I realized why did I use non-stick foil in the
first place. Eventually I came up with some kind of solution. I placed a drop of water on the tuft, let it sit for a little, and removed it with a tweezers. However, it wasn't as convenient as just light pull if non-stick foil was used. I'll try to remember that few years down the road.
I finished the freight house one week later than I said I was going. Like always my original estimate was too optimistic. I am late with the post as well. At the time of this writing it has already been sold and it will leave tomorrow for the new home.
