hi guys, 
i have made a Fibreglass mould of a part, however due to the angles of the part, its quite difficult to remove it from inside the mould. 
i was wondering how i can go about using compressed air to pop the part out of the mould? is it a simple case of drilling a hole in the mould and attaching some compressed air?

Use a wooden wedge to loosen around the whole perimeter, then blow some compressed air underneath from the side. If this doesn't work you can start thinking about drilling through the mould.
And be careful and always wear eye protection...
