I finally wrapped up the mold. There are a few pin holes in the mold but they can all be filled with filleting wax or plasticine clay. Also, the edges will be of the part will be filled with some filleting wax and draft angles created so the B side of the mold will come off.

Tonight I will prep the part for the B side casting by doing what I said above and cleaning up the part a bit more with some light sanding. The inside of the cubby also needs a bead of wax which will prevent the mold material from leaking into the cubby and for another draft angle.

If I haven't said this already, the mold will only be used for vacuum bagging and not doing compression molds at this point.
