thanks alot guys, its been alot of help.
A draft angle is like when 2 plactic cups fit together... or are stacked together. Does tha make more sense? One has to pull out of the other. If you are using the bottom cup as the mold, the top cup (your part) has to come out of the 1st cup.
If you want quick access to fiberglass materials try Home Depot. They have bath tub repair kits that should contain mat... they also sell resin and cheap brushes. If you happen to live near any bodies of water... lol... a store called West Marine (or any marine store) will give you a better selection.
