This guide details the advanced fabrication process for creating a replica 'Little Boy' atomic bomb nose cone, as demonstrated by a professional industrial fabricator. The process involves precise CNC metal spinning using heavy-gauge sheet metal and subsequent trimming with a waterjet cutter to achieve historical accuracy.

This video provides an expert look at the manufacturing process of ammunition cartridge cases using draw sets. It details how a blank disc of brass, steel, or copper is mechanically drawn through multiple dies to achieve a thinner, longer shape, ultimately forming the finished case. The process also covers the final machining steps, such as creating the extractor groove, and showcases intermediate materials like copper jacketing and steel cores.
