Abstract: A tool 10 having at least one internal passageway, such as passageway 40, 42, 44 which may provide a vacuum onto the tangible item formation surface or portion 17, which may provide pressure to the tangible item formation surface or portion 17, or which may provide cooling to the tool 10. In alternate embodiments of the inventions, the number and types of such internal passageways 40, 42, 44 may be “mixed and matched” to allow a tool 10 to be built to meet a variety of dissimilar needs and operations. Such a tool may be built by the use of a lamination process.
