supposed to let sit for 2 ours before handling... i let them sit for 4 hours to ensure that i can handle with out messing them up.

was concerned about getting them out of the molds !! pins pushed out like butter, nice and easy, then breaking the halves apart was simple popped them apart with a putty knife and easily separated !! then the urethane part easily came out of the mold , very easily !! 

total cure is supposed to be 48 hours, so will see what they look like and how they cure. they are semi soft, not very hard, feel like a urethane bushing but softer. i can easily twist them, but no metal inset in either... so the inset should provide rigidity. 

there is some flash, but that is fine with me, easily trimmed up. 

mold 1 separated

urethane 1 out of mold, no inset

mold 1 no inset

mold 2 with inset, same as 1 , easily separated and removed a little more rigid with the 3d printed inset, you can clearly see it in the photos.

mold 2 separated

pulling urethane 2 out of mold

angle view of urethane 2, you can see the inset, opening closet to view

close up of urethane, clearly see inset in the chamfers

here is a flat of urethane 1 (funnel in tact) next to urethane 2 (funnel removed)

when i do finally molding for use, they will be opaque black with insets...
