New Way A-20 Demon Build Part 5, Nose Cone Shaping



I tried to fit the nose cone shoulder into the body tube but could see it was too large. The shoulder corners were being compressed and torn.

Like the connector in the last post, the shoulder width was reduced and the corners slightly rounded.


Once in the body tube you can see the nose cone overhanging the tube.
The sides were sanded down to the body tube sides with a block.
The nose cone corner sides were also rounded to match the tube.


The original Demon had a rounded nose cone tip.
You could leave the nose cone squared off but I rounded it.



Here's the shaped and fitted nose cone ready for filler.
