The question of whether I need to vent my molds or not has plagued me for some time now. I decided to make a couple of fluidity spirals to test my set up so I'd know. It was nice to finally quantify things in my set up.

This test was actually inspired by two things; reading in John Campbell's book and a test I watched luckygen1001 run youtu.be/024yOMb6OHI

If you'd like the 3-D models to make your own fluidity spirals, you can download them for free here: drive.google.com/open?id=1EyGJYXUqjO2ZK474UOa6shkQ79XF2QDT I'd love to see your results if you use them.
