This is crazy. I literally created this mask in 5 minutes with chatgpt. I measured inside diameter at both ends of the nozzle and gave it the length and told it to create a svg file 2d representation of the inside surface of the cone and add 19 evenly spaced Crenels, with a carrier strip to hold the crenels in place. Then I cut it on my silhouette cutter.

What comes next? Is that going to be left on the nozzle and painted over, or is that a mask to be removed? I’m curious :hmm:

That's just a paint mask Carlos. Trying to simulate the varying colors of the petals on the inside..
