I made an aluminum liner for my nose cone. First I made a mock up out of pieces of a thin poster type board called "bristol board" here in Canada (I don't know if that is the name for it in the US).
I used this mock up as a pattern for the aluminium. The hardest part was formong the round shape because I think I used too heavy of a guage of aluminium. If your are in anyway mechanically minded you should have no problem making one.
