Has anyone made a copy of the Pershing 1A nose cone that I can get, print or have printed?
I know someone made a fiberglass one years ago but it weighed a ton (figurative one, not an actual ton) I have the nice kit that Boyce made - but it's BT-80 size and I want to make a 4 inch version. I have everything but the nose cone.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Leo DeNutz drew up these parts several years ago.

Boyce also does the Maxi-Brute BT-101 version of the Pershing 1a.

Yes, I see that now. Can?t believe I didn?t see it before.
Thanks!

The Boyce kit must need a load of nose weight. If you need a BT-101 body tube you can use the Estes Saturn V main body tube.

The Estes kit used a lot of clay in the nose as well. I remember spending quite a bit of time packing it into the nose. That was probably 45 years ago, though, so maybe I just think I remember it.

It does indeed need a buttload of nose weight. I ended up using #8 chilled lead shot encased in epoxy.
