Plastic crayon NC in Openrocket

[gerbs4me]

I was wondering how I could make a NC for my crayon rocket in Openrocket?

I just downloaded last night, such a great program

Any help would be greatly appreciated

I've got it listed in my "Open Rocket, Fake it until you Make it: Accurate Nosecone Shapes" thread. I've also got a tutorial on how to do it yourself.

Here's my Crayon...

Perhaps you could contribute these excellent tutorials to the OpenRocket wiki?

I don't know anything about the wiki, but I have no problem with the tutorials being used there. I just wish that others would make some of these nosecone patterns for everyone to enjoy (or send me the parts so I can do them myself :wink: ).

Dang... Now I remember, I haven't done the PNC-55EX (Estes Exocet 38mm (1925)/Ranger (1955)) rocket yet (and I've got a lot of reading to still do).
