Default Looking for an FSI HNC-81 Nose Cone

This fits the FSI/Semroc .908 tubing. It is made of hardwood. Thanks. I have FSI stuff to trade. Semroc used to make this in balsa but not any longer.

Thanks.

Me too, Scott.
I don't know that Carl ever "discontinued" anything.
If it was "out of stock" he would make you one, as well if it didn't exist, he would make also.
We were spoiled.

I'm glad I had the foresight to buy at least 3 of the various parts when I ordered them back in the day.

Now if I could just find those other two BT-55-sized BNC-50BC upscales....

FWIW, I have an original hardwood FSI nosecone for their 27mm motor / body tube. The one used by the Oso, Voyager, and Viking IV.

I no longer have any of the tubing, but it is for sale.
