Yeah, I wouldn't suggest using plywood for that part of the Sherman.
Since it is on the front of the tank, it should probably be durable
but replaceable. You can purchase metal chimney tubes of about that
size. They are made of curled sheets, so you could easily spread one
to cut it.

Ask Neil (neroc) about this one. He made the cylindrical turret on my
Valentine from plywood and it's a lovely job. However, if you look at
another of Neil's creations, T055 (

) , you'll see that he used plastic drainpipe of the right diameter to
form the lower nose section. The Locust nose is similar in shape,
though a lot smaller, to the Shermans, so it might be an option to
start looking for a bit of pipe.
