After leaving SSC I want to come back and build another looper, I have decided it will be very similar to my first Coaster here, Incinerated. It will be nine cubes tall and I will build a hopefully better version of that drop you guys liked. On that drop my personal opinion was the pullout was two big and straight in relation to the size of the drop. My next coaster will feature some pretty intense Christmas theming, and many of the elements from B&M we have all come to love.

On another note, coming off an injury I am kind of clumsy with my arm still, so I am hoping I will still be able to build like I used to. This ride will feature box supports and Strictly 6-7 crossties per flexi, except the lift currently has 4 on red rods. At the moment the gearing for the lift is finished, I only want to finish the trackwork on it before I upload anything. I am also going to be experimenting with tube supports for laterals on this ride. I just think its something I have never done before, and it looks kind of cool. I'm going to edit in pictures in like an hour. http://t1.gstatic.co...iFKS-XZi6fxOnDQ

YAH a correctly supported lift! No, really, this is exciting. Half the members I see can't even make that. Looking forward to this coaster.

Ha, you are a perfect example of someone who cannot. Take a look at this lift and you will see why yours fails.

^Looking good dude. Have any layout ideas?

Okay just got back from basketball game, so I won't be building any at all today. And RCT2123, I have a few broad layout ideas. I know I want to have a drop like Deluge/ Incinerated. I also want the sort of classic B&M look to it. I was thinking like loop, then dive loop, then zero g either through or close to the loop.

I love the simplicity of your coasters, nothing special special about the supports or track, just so well executed and so perfect.

Why didn't you just quote him? Also that's basically spam, you didn't say anything about his coaster.

To eggo Looks good so far, not much to comment on except that it looks great I love your coasters and can't wait to see more!! :D

Ok guys, I'm going to be building the drop tonight. I am expecting help from my brother. Look for an update in an hour or two.

Thank you for all the compliments, but keep in mind it is only a crest and predrop.

Sorry for the DP, but don't comment on the post above. I know the heartline is too long, and it needs to be pushed more to the left at the beginning, fixed both. I will hopefully post pics in like 20 mins. Here's pictures for RCT... Oh, and ignore the unsupported track at the end.
