Piglet-sus! Build Part 7 Nose Cone



This rocket is so short, there won't be much room for anything above the upper centering ring.
The nose cone shoulder will have to be cut down to 1/4" long.
The bottom, white nose cone is the new one to be used on this rocket.



Before gluing in the shoulder, this model will require nose weight. Fill the nose cone 2/3 full with clay, tamped down into the front of the cone.
    
With the rear plug set in the nose cone, the plug edge overhangs the shoulder diameter.
This will have to be sanded down even with the shoulder.
