How are you going about it? I use two elliptical sections -- a nose cone and a transition, or two transitions - 1.566" diameter, and 1/2 of this for each half's length. I might even place a thin-walled tube in between the two sections with a length like 0.00001", to act as a reference diameter for launch lugs...
