August 2005 um 10:29] [Melden] Hi Would have liked to make my nose cones with a bottle, heat gun and a wooden model but I don’t have access to a lathe, so have to try making them of styropor. Does anyone have experience in making nose cones of styropor, styrodur, styrofoam etc. If so I would be happy if the would post tips and tricks on how to make styropor nose cones with for example the use of a drilling machine, and how it is best painted and treaded afterwards. With kind regard Rasmus Denmark

If you can't get the (green colored) Styrodur, have a look for the (violet colored) Stuff called Jacko-dur. You don't have to use a lathe. These nosecones can be made with a drilling machine or when you skilled without a machine too. Greets Tom

Do you want to make the models out of styropor to shrink the PET bottles over it? I don´t think the styropor withstand the forces of a shrinking bottle! Greetings Robert

August 2005 um 13:53] [Melden] Hi No, Won't use the styropor as a model for shrinking bottles. What to use the styropor nose cone itself to put on the rocket. I think if I coat it with epoxy or something it will both enhance strength and lower the drag. With kind regards Rasmus Denmark

Having trouble finding styrodur and jacko-dur in Denmark Kind regards from Rasmus Jakobsen

Having trouble finding styrodur and jacko-dur in Denmark Kind regards from Rasmus Jakobsen Hi Rasmus, Styrodur is a registered trade mark von BASF - Germany. And a view on the BASF Website shows: Styrodur® C (XPS) I guess that your XPS is the same like the Styrodur oder Jacko-dur. But i found no distributor on their website http://www.styrodur.de in Denmark, only Norway and Sweden http://www2.basf.de/basf2/html/plastics/englisch/pages/schaum/styrodur_vertrieb.htm Greets Tom
