I started out with a lower air pressure but ended up jacking it up to 120 psi to get enough volume to get the unit to free it's self. Wedged the bottom flange all the way around to put some pressure on the post then worked it with a white rubber mallet. After purging the air on and off and adding tension to the flange wedges I let the compressor pressure build back up and purged it again then pop! It slid out about an inch and then I was able to slide it right out. It came out easier than I thought it would but not a easy task. It never would of budged with out the air chuck. The mold came out looking good. It has a few little air bubble voids that needs a little filler but overall in good shape. I will slide it back on then add a good bit more glass and some bracing. Once I get it stiffened up I will work on getting the inside flaw free.Name:  20131230_233623.jpg
