I decided to use mold release spray instead of the soap method to create silicone socks for my new mosquito hotend. I used sadkins1981's design but it was very difficult to remove them with the base being a simple box as it created a suction effect.
With this split base you can separate the bottom of the mold easily and then wiggle the sock out of the sides. I have used this to successfully make 3 socks, just make sure to gently pull and twist the sock to remove it without any damage. I used M3x10 and M3 nuts to hold the base and sides together.
