I could have used a Estes Tri-Fold mount for the shock cord connection on the nose cone shoulder, but I wanted something stronger.
This is based on what Centuri did at the body tube end on some of their larger diameter rockets.
A half segment about 1" long was cut from some scrap 50mm tube.
Last year when I first made up the plastic nose cones, I made a shoulder from some body tube. This shock cord mount will be glued inside the shoulder.1/4" elastic shock cord was tied around the segment.
The half round mount was then glued into the shoulder with white glue.
