Time to un wrap
I did spray a resin release agent before i poured the mold so it would not stick too bad.
To square it up I did a little cutting with a dremal & hack saw!!!
Ok took a few shots to see how it looks on different surfaces
a little more work on the cover and then i will start on the base
