   When you say "machined" do you mean the nosecone alone or the entire fuselage? They must have used a pretty decent sized lathe!

   Nice work regardless.

   Oh, the whole rocket was metal, but the nosecone was the one with heavy machining. Probably some other parts too. The builder told me he spent 50-60 hours a week for two years working on it….
