Thrustline Arapahoe C, Part 4, Tail Cone

The tail cone is made from the nose cone from a second Monarch kit.
The BT-20 engine mount tube has to fit inside. The nose cone tip is removed.
Set the engine mount tube over the NC tip and trace around it with a pencil.
Saw off the end on the pencil line.

More of the nose cone lip had to be removed until the BT-20 tube was a friction fit.







The top of the shoulder is cut off.
Leave a rolled lip on the shoulder so the centering rings have something to glue onto.
