    Can anyone give me details of how to pass this resin, the mold is made of wood, is there any product between the wood and the resin?

    I'm not sure what the question is.

      Oil or grease i suppose.
      If i understood correctly; you are asking how to prevent resin sticking to wood, right?
      I guess is alright to smear simple "machine" oil over wooden surface and primed it with some brush or sponge equally.

        Ok, Got it. Healthy spray with Dry Silicon Spray works for me. https://www.walmart.com/ip/3M-Silico...&wl13=&veh=sem

            This is a mold for vacuum forming not for resin.

                  If I understand the question.. It's pretty easy to extract the wood form from the plastic.. I have done it many 100's of times. Try this:
                  Build a square frame out of 2 × 4s about the same size as your ABS sheet. Then just bang your plastic against the frame until it pops out. You can help this process by building your form with a slight taper everywhere.

                  I generally put a soft pad in the bottom of the frame so my form does not get damaged.. but it's very difficult to damage ABS.
                  Don..

                    When you form the shell its easier to remove form when the abs is still slightly warm. I drive a screw partially into the wood and pull with pliers.
                    I also rub candle wax into the wood and it pops right out.
