IH885XLMAN Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 when i did the two chassis CASE & DB i diddnt use any venting like that i just poured the rubber slowly in one corner so the rubber would find its way over the surface natraly so you reduce the risk of air pockets but i have seen holes purposely put in mould casts before what are you casting/moulding there rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
