Well,,,

Sooooo,,, 10 days later, and I find a box on my porch,, its my package!!
Inside I find two cans of juice, an assembled mold and some pages of MSDS papers,, oh yea and some black die...
Their are no instructions!!! the vids I watched are my guides.

The molds are Not injection molded,,, they are machined!.
The bits and pieces fit very tight,
and its like a Chinese puzzle,
I plan to drill 5 more holes for through bolts to hold it closed tighter.

More reports to follow,,,,,

I knew they were machined from the video. From the design I saw, you should not need the extra bolts.

Just be careful with the sealant.

At least you can get some sleep now ! No pics? Bummer. Maybe next post. You should not need anymore clamping ... if it leaks a tiny bit ya just take that part off easy enough.
