You can use OpenRocket to create the file for the nosecone. It can be exported direct into Cura and printed from there. Do you know how to use it?
Or you can use the SCAD nosecone generator to give a few more refinements including internal transition across mating area into nosecone. See section below.

Here you go:
This meets your specification
2mm wall thickness.
2mm wall thickness.
Not sure what's going on Chuck, but when I zoom into yours in Cura I see some weird polygon rendering.
Thank you!
Thanks!
Thank you!
This forum rocks.
I have to agree. One post and two answers in hours.
Having problems trying to get my 3D printer to recognize the drawing. Do you have any recommendations for format?
The stl file is used by your slicer of choice. The slicer produces the output file for your specific printer. This is found under printer or settings then printer in your specific slicer software.
What printer, filament, slicer program are you using?
Have you printed before?

It is out of one of the nose cone generators from openscad.
not mine....
No. Another one I download here.

Complete novice on 3D. I bought a Anycubic Kobra 2 Neo FDM 220 X 220 X 250mm PLA 1.75 filament printer for this project. I downloaded the nose cone file to a TF card that came with the printer but the printer couldn’t read so I downloaded MS 3D builder but no help. Not familiar with slicer programs
Watch some novice YouTube videos.
The stl file is a 3d model. A filament printer needs that turned into gcode for each printing layer. The Gcode says what speed you're moving at between the various specific locations that you want the plastic extruded from/to. And the rate to extrude it.
Your SLICER is the program that does that for you. And then outputs the GCode that your printer recognises. You need a friend to assist you, or contact the local library who will usually do STEM classes. Ask the librarian to point you in the right direction. That's your best option. Librarians are a great source of knowledge. One of them even suggested I read " A day in the life of Ivan Denisovich" Which was a hard read, but worth doing.
But at the moment' you're a long way off understanding printing.

I agree with @OzHybrid
Here's a summary of the 3D printing workflow. See link below. You'll end up learning a lot about your slicer app of choice.
