My first working, custom coaster to be put on SSC (if completed). Out of parts, and going to finish building it in Decemeber when they arrive. As I said, its my first custom coaster thats not half bad. Layout has been predetermined, but not a name, so i'll need ideas if i cant get one. if anything looks bad, or needs improvement, tell me, and ill see what i can do.

RIDE NOW CANCELED!!!!!

I love it! I think that you should turn it into a rosebowl because you could re-use the supports.

[Blackkitty]

I would use radii supports unless its a woodie. they're too weak how you have them

[~stεεlspectrum~]

A few bumps here and there, but overall I like it. I love how you're being creative with your supports! Not many people use radii unless it's a woodie.

SuperTKdkid ,i was prob gonna make a rosebowl, but it depends on if the curve of the track. if i can get the radius to become smaller, ill try, if not, ill have to connect the supports to the other supports already up, after i reinforce them. Blackkitty, im gonna have to, but since im not going to get parts until December 3-7, im gonna have to wait. Steel, its prob gonna become a woodie, since i just placed an order on ebay for 600purple and blue joints(300 each) then 800 blue rods, then ill fill it in with the rest of my parts. when i get farther ahead on my coaster ill post update pics.

[SuperTKDKid]

You have inspired me to build a steel coaster with a mega rosebowl for my Christmas coaster!

I'm thinking about saying the usual, "You should start smaller" but ya know... I like this. Please keep going i want to see more.

EDIT: Oh yeah, you wont get your parts till December... :/ Oh well. I can wait.

awww. and yeah, im building big. ive built models for over a year now, and for the last 9months, ive been buying more and more sets, so im just going all out. ^ yeah, they're shipping out from kentucky 2morrow. its gonna take 5days to travel less than 200 miles. and again, this is my first official custom for SSC, so im definately trying to make it as good as it can be, but not too much. ill stick with what i can handle...

[jespercoasters]

Dude this is pretty good. Keep on building.

[LaMbChOpZ]

yeah, well again, the guy from ebay isnt sending them until monday, then its going to take 4 days to get it to me. so prob in a week ill have new pics of it.

[Knexrule11]

Ok. I would use less crossties though, expecally if your running out of pieces. The track has a few bumps in it, but nothing a minute of smoothing can't fix.

Ride Canceled. no questions
