^I can't give constructive criticism if you are going to do it

Oo, it looks great. I really think this version is better than incinerated.

[Knexrule11]

Could you add some Black Wrench-ish connectors on the crossties, then connect flexys to them? You don't have to, but it might help if its not strong (But it probrably is though). Other then that its looking amazing!

[Eggo]

Come on guys, I really need comments so I can know if its okay. And no I will not add flexis, I am planning on making more connections.

[colintaylor]

I think it looks fine, but, as soon as you make the connections you NEED to add flexi rods. They help the support and structure A LOT.

[RollerManiac]

Wow, your a lot better than I thought you were! There's nothing wrong, but do you have a layout planned yet? I could make one for you.

[Eggo]

I will not be putting flexis on the first part, I will use them on the rest of the coaster. If I build a zero g roll it will not contain flexis. End of topic. V Look at Incinerated, I will use flexis on the entire drop except the part shown. This will result in minuscule speed loss. I also DID put tubing in the middle hole in the track. I will put as much track strengthening as possible. I will add flexis on the drop starting at the unsupported track, like on incinerated.

[Millcreek47]

This is what i don't like about people like you. You ask for advice and when we give it to you, you don't take it... My advice is to use flexies. Atleast put tubing in the middle whole in the track. You need as much support in your track, especially on the first drop.

[Poseidon]

There is plenty of connections to support the track. If so many people are worried of this, then Eggo should probably put one or two connections in there. There is no need to get upset over flex-rods. Eggo is right as right could be.

[Eggo]

Okay, I am sorry for being a jerk. I will leave it alone for now, and then later I will go back and add flexis if there are any problems with the track bending, flexing, or shaking.

[Eggo]

Wow, I Dp way too much. Still I have an update, drop is done! Complete with flexis.









Wow, in that last pic it looks like Coaster55 made it.

[colintaylor]

i like it, don't see any problems, unless it shakes.

[TheSUCKCrew]

Peepshow, thats neat!
Looks really good, nice shaping!

[RollerManiac]

One word for you: WOW! I say move on! I'll have the layout soon.

[Knexrule11]

I like the drop. Its unique. Move on!

[Fraggie]

It looks really smooth and well suported. But to me it seems to be banked a little too much for only a 90* turn. I know stengal dives turn less than that and are over banked but for the first drop it seems to be a little over banked. Unless you were going for the stengal divish look then its perfect!!

Edit: That's what I thought it was, at first it looks like it would be a 180* turn. Well I like it anyways!!! Keep it up!!

[Eggo]

Okay, the drop is something you really won't see on a B&M looper. It is very unrealistic. You get things more like Wildfire, or Kraken. Yeah, I overbanked it on purpose. Kind of trying to make a 90* drop with a 180*'s style.

[CCI]

Very old Style B&M! it looks great. If it shakes put some latterals(sp) on it.

[Eggo]

^ Thanks, it does not shake at all, but if it did I would add in some tube supports. Like as laterals. V Its no big deal.

[SuperTKDKid]

Could you possibly not try to start an argument in my thread please? Thank you. (SuperTkdkid)

I wasn't. And nice drop.
