The moulds are ready.....Yes!

Today I did the last things to the polyester mold. I cut all the edges sanded and everything. Then it was time to find out if both halves of the mold wanted to separate. First I very carefully put a chisel between the halves and into the gap I tapped wooden wedges. It took some time and effort but suddenly The first halve separated from the wooden hull and after some tapping the other half released.
I am very happy because it was quite a lot of work and it was very exciting if everything would work the way I wanted.


Here some pictures from begin till now
