Estes Payloader II #3022 Build, Part 7, More CWF Filling


The nose cone fit is loose in the clear payload section.
I'll build up the diameter the same way as the nose block with a coat of CWF.
I kept the CWF away from the new, sharp lip.
This will be sanded to a tight, friction fit in the payload tube.

I could have used masking tape but the shoulder gets gummy after a while.






With the filler/primer sprayed you can better see the inside leading edge angle joint.
Some 400 grit was wrapped around the stick part of a Q-tip to even out the rounded leading edge.

To round out the corner you can add a small fillet of Titebond M&TG.
