I thought making the nozzle bases would be harder than the cardstock nozzles, but I was wrong. First, I made a tool to form the nozzles around, starting with a piece of dowel, sharpened with my beat-up, but trusty Dexter #2 sharpener. Then stuck in a drill and sanded down, using a paper nozzle to get the right cone. The stiff cardstock didn't roll as nice as I'd like, (and I've never been very good with paper transitions of any kind), but who's going to notice once it's built and painted?
