TIP: To insure your nose cone base fits well against the top of the BT-50 tube, sand the base flat before gluing in the shoulder.
The edge of the molded base is usually a little rounded.
Sand flat on 220 grit on a block.
The nose cone base has a short interior gluing shoulder.
Before applying glue, think about where the excess glue will end up when the base is pressed into the cone.
TIP: Apply plastic glue to INSIDE of the nose cone lip, not on the shoulder as shown in the instructions.
This keeps the excess glue inside the nose cone and not oozing out onto the outside of the shoulder base. That excess glue could hamper the fit in the BT-50 body tube.
