Why such a thick bottom mold? Just because of the I-beam height on the sides?

Your two vertical supports in the middle look small (width), and you don't have much structure on top (where all of the bending load will be). Looks like the same width bars. Remember that pressure results in a LOT of force, depending on what pressure you plan on pressing with. The beefier you can make the structure, the higher pressure you can press with safely. Pressure is a dangerous thing, the last thing you want is for part of the frame to fail...
