Re: [TCML] building/finding forms for conical sec

[resonance@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

You can build up a nice conical form using some balsa wood strips or
spruce strips (local lumber shop) cutting and gluing them into a cone
shape.  Then cover with paper mache.  After drying it makes a nice hard
cone for winding on.  Fun project to get kids involved with as many of
them have worked with paper mache in school art projects.
