[Arnold Roquerre]

I need some nose cones made fro 4" and 5" airframe. Anyone know of a vendor that will do this?

I guess it depends on what you are looking for.
Fiberglass, plastic?

5" is not very standard. 5.5" is.

I am not interested buying stock. I need a cone made to my specifications.

I can make pretty much anything you want from just about any material you want...I prefer balsa but I do have other materials.

How much beer are you willing to offer?
I can turn you one out of foam.

I didn't know you could make nose cones out of beer foam. How do you get it to stay in the lathe?

Pour it outside. In January. Im Minnesota. (Or in Ohio, for that matter.)

Thanks,

I appreciate the info. I am either going to stay with the current airframe and ellectronics bay design which require a slightly mofified cone or I will junk everything and move to a different design. As they say, "it is time to either dumb or get off the pot".

This is OT, but what are you recovering from?
