Pulled the stab out of the mold this morning. Came out pretty nice. I used just wax for release on this mold and it came out good. Only complaint is that when painting or primering the mold, you have to gently mist the paint on, let it flash, and then come back and shoot an even coat. Otherwise it will act like there are spots of moisture on the mold. Could have been my gun, but the PVA did not seem to do this. However, PVA is water soluble. I need to put a moisture trap on this compressor.

Total stab weight was only 4.6 oz!

If you notice in the above photos that I put carbon near the ends of the hinge line. This reinforcement is too much and makes the hinge hard to move.
