Default Re: Draw and engraver

I would make a paper pattern wrapped around the cone then flatten out the paper and draw my design on the paper...make a transfer from the pattern and place on the cone for engraving. I assume the 12 and 16 mm dimensions are diameters of the ends of the cone.

PS...that would be about the size of a 1 and 3/4 inch section of a rifle barrel near the muzzle. But more taper.
