Option
2 -- Cleat Down with Curved Parting Line
The ice cleat is oriented with the cleats and finer detail facing down in the
mold. This allows any porosity or inclusions to rise to the thicker, unstressed flat
section.
The parting line has been curved to fit along the curved plane of the base
section. If the parting line is kept straight, the curve in the base section would
require a core.
This is the best option for the parting line and component orientation in the
mold.
