Re: Winter contest entry.

So far you only have a structure without a track. Hardly anything to comment on.

Re: Winter contest entry.

Your whole structure is under pressure and it's stressed. there is barely any support. And like you have said, the pullout is way too small.

Re: Winter contest entry.

You won't be able to build a woodie if you're already out of pieces.

Re: Winter contest entry.

2, I think you should completely re-start this. There are huge bumps along the track, and it is majorly unsupported and mishappen. And if you are running out of pieces already, I don't think you will be able to make a woodie.

Sorry if that was a bit harsh.

Re: Winter contest entry.

I think you should concentrate on building one coaster so you can get your basics established and not run out of pieces doing it. You can't instantly be a master builder, it takes time.
