"Thanks UJ", the rather large Cone was purchased with the intention of using it in the previous build #306, but found difficulty in combining the placement on the build and using the Scale Length I wanted, had seen and liked a few similar type builds in the past, so came up with this design to suit the Cone Size :-D
