I would not worry too much about saving that male one off mdf mold as it will likely warp or break before you ever use it again (mdf loves to absorb water)...plus it is not tapered like Dave already mentioned. They are cheap and easy to make anyways..... If you want a super smooth surface then you should coat it something before you wax....the wax alone will leave some streaks in your part...I dont know that it really matters anyways....how smooth your surface is....I was thinking it may have been easier to make a female one off mold but then your smooth surface would be on the out side. It would have been easier to free the part....be careful with compressed air and molds! If you did not seal/join the area where the base connects to the box it may leak air....then start a hacking away!
