Estes Honest John, #7240 Build, Part 2, Tail Cone




The ends have to be cut off the tail cone.
The instructions show a hobby knife being used. You can use a knife but I have better results with a fine tooth hobby saw.


The inside flash has to be removed for the centering rings to fit in the tail cone.
Remove the edge by shaving it off with a knife. Make small cuts.



Round off the inside edges with 220 grit wrapped around the engine mount tube.
The engine mount tube is a thick walled BT-50 size.
