yeah but still a pain. its usually easier to make relief cuts inside the mold and let the vacuum do the rest. but in most cases it gives the part a distorted pattern. i made all of these with minimal distortion. if i were to spray tack a few pieces in the mold it would leave the cut lines visible. not very noticible but non the less not wanted i try to make my parts with a single piece. not practicle with spray tacking.
