Hi there, I'm fairly new on here and this is my first time asking for advice, so go easy with me!
I'm attempting to make a mould of a car part for a friend and have come to a point where I'm a little unsure of what to do, or if I can even take a mould from the part!
I've constructed a flange for the part with fluted signboard, and plan on filleting all the overhanging edges and fill and smooth any securing holes also, but as I'm sitting looking at it, I'm starting to have second thoughts on whether I can even make a mould and have the part easily release! Any advice on what I should do next would be greatly appreciated.
I've tried to up load a few pics but it says I'm at or over the limit, even with just one picture. Anyone any ideas what I may be doing wrong with that, as I've only ever uploaded three pictures.

If you have a few days its worth watching the EC video that Paul made showing the infusion process, will help with the questions you asked about vacuum times.
Id say as a beginner you will have better results if you clamp the vacuum pipe off first and then after letting extra resin in clamp the inlet pipe, give it 20seconds or so and if you have any bridging this will help.
