The cone comes with the kit it is not symmetrical the diameter changes. It is the CSD cone cover as the same as all the other replicas.

RE: Turbine Frame
Could you do me a small favor and get me a height and length? I'd really appreciate it.

Wow those blades look pretty cool. Looks like there a few too many but I don't think anyone will ever notice. Why not use the stove liner like the one Nitro sent me and Rusty? With a little work I think they look great.

RE: Turbine Frame
I used an aluminum cooker because it has a nice lip and it remains the same diameter through the bottom of the can. Unlike most cans that taper to the bottom. It was also the right diameter, took me forever to get the right one.

RE: Turbine Frame
Sorry, I can’t weld aluminum. Or it stainless? I can’t weld stainless either except by mig, but then it would have to be painted. How are you going to fit the blades far enough back to allow for the center section or does it just appear that it’s too tight for the blades to go deeper in?

The blades will drop all the way to the bottom the basket is holding them up. I will need to shorten the housing and remove the handles.
I use alumiloy welding rods with a regular butane torch to weld aluminum and it works and looks great.

RE: Turbine Frame
Kevin,
That is such an excellent idea (using the cooking pot). I love how inventive you guys are Cant wait to finish making my afterburner out of a wastebasket/lampshade, so I can post pics
