I used a pair of hinges on the underside of the bottom chassis rail, fixed into the bottom return on the back of the nose.

Stuart,

Nosecone should be self explanatory. You'll have horizontal faces that run on top of the side rail of the chassis, and nearly vertical faces that butt up again the pieces of chassis connecting the top and bottom rails.

The nose cone is fitted now, and it hinges.
