No, I'm just curious to see how you did it with micro chain as opposed to normal chain.Sure! Is it made incorrectly from what you can see? Thanks for the reply!

Thanks! I have been building for a while. Oh, and I am NOT new to the site. Do you know why it says "new" on my profile?I am completely blown away by this! Everything looks like you've been building for quite a while. The only thing that I would suggest to change but isn't needed is to switch the chain guide to micro parts. I think it would look a lot better, but what would be even better and save you more pieces is having the chain drop down one of the supports and ride along the ground like a real Giga coaster would have, kinda like what JPCoaster did.
Thanks man!Oh Nice coaster!!! No faults so far
If BBaller347 used boxes, blue track and an epic chain return, this is what it would look like.
Thanks!
Impressed, looking forward to seeing the next elements.
Really! Thanks!

As for the video, here are a few quick tips to help the rest of us not be lost and confused while watching.
# 1 KEEP the Camera Still!!
#2 talking from the behind the camera means the mic is facing away from you so it is hard to understand.
Both of these issues can be solved by placing the camera someplace where it won't move. A tripod is typically the best, but a flat surface, such as a book or chair also work (just make sure you don't knock it off, of it fall off, and also make sure it is close enough to the edge to not get the surface it is sitting on).
Then take your video. Stand to the side or front to speak so you can be easily understood, and speak slowly. Also, if you can not see the entire run of the train or something, do it in 2 or 3 clips, and then post edit. (if you do not have video on your computer (most digital video cameras come with something) you can Google and find a free one that will get the job done)
Good luck, and keep up the excellent work!

This is looking very good.

First off, the camera is shaped like this:http://www.any-video...d-camcorder.png so I can't put it on a flat surface.(That's why it was sitting diagonally in the video.)Second, I don't have a camcorder tripod for polaroid. Do you know where to get a tripod for that camcorder? Thirdly, I'm 11 years old and my parents don't want my face in the video for everyone to see it on youtube. I also don't know how to make advanced videos like in sections you guys do. Thanks for saying that it is excellent!:king
