Pigasus Build Part 8 Nose Cone Weight


The 1/2 oz of clay weight is formed into a snake and pressed into the pre-drilled hole in the nose cone base.

The dowel was used to press the clay forward and level out the top.



The screw eye is turned into the plywood plug, just far enough until where the screw threads aren't visible.
Don't screw too far in or there won't be any threads to hold the eye in the disk!

The disk edges took a little bit of sanding to fit into the pre-drilled nose cone hole.
After the disk was pushed in as far as it could go, a fillet was applied around the edges using a dowel as an applicator.
