I know how to make the mold, but I'm just using a vacuum and this system has been proven to work. The mold ribs are all identical and have been sanded to a smooth finish. The surface of this box is flat and smooth. To test it out I stood on it and it didnt move at all. Still might put a sheet of thin metal on top but I have some time to think about that.
