Having trouble holding vacuum! Have checked from the bag to the catch pot to the pump holding vacuum here. Installed a new bag even ran a dye around the edge, inlets/outlets and pleats no leaks. which only leaves the mold, this is made from 18mm custom wood with glued joints and 5 layers of epoxy paint hard to see it leaking. do you have any ideas? Could I infuse it and leave the pump running? Help Regards.

Any doubts about the mould then envelope bagging is your friend. That way the only places that can leak are the bag or gum tape and that can be eliminated with bagging practice and experience.

Looks like an envelope is the answer will give it a go and let you know, will be a couple of weeks. Cheers
