Hi John
In one of your videos you have the mold stood on dowels, what are they for? Is it to stop the mold moving when you use the sanding dish ?

I think what you are referring to are the dowels that hold the mold in place. You have to drill them yourself. Position your mold on the center line (clamp in place) and pick spots on the diagonal corners and drill through the mold into your dish. Be sure you cut your dowels long enough to get them out but not so long as to get in the way.

So it is to hold the mold in place in relation to the center of the dish ?
