In Response To: Re: Mold release (Bill Hamm)

: Just had a thought, the raised spot that goes between the legs might make it
: really tricky to get a good release. Normally that would require a
: sectional mold. Dips in the mold like that cause a huge amount of suction
: when you try to release the part. You probably already know that :)

: Bill H.

practice a small hole on the apex and it wont give any problem, and its fairly easy to close after.
