Hmmm...(Thank you, John and Sandman)...I was just thinking about hardwood as an interim solution. I also agree regarding blow-molded plastic nose cones being preferable (until/unless rapid, mass-3-D printing becomes practical). Even now, blow-molded nose cones are made in sizes down to slightly less than 1" in diameter (Quest's new 25 mm blow-molded nose cones, which replaced their legacy MPC/AVI injection-molded ones), and I'd be happy with even smaller (BT-5 size) blow-molded nose cones.
