I have birthed my first boot hoof! I extracted it from the mold, test fit onto the boot and test fit the shoe on the bottom with a little sanding. I now understand the value of degassing, but that's an expensive setup. Going to test filler, sanding, paint as another option.

I'm confident in silicone mold to start creating the left boothoof. As I start to separate the sidewall from the bottom of the hoof, I noticed that silicone had leaked in between the two layers. Lol
