This coaster is going to be beyond huge!! And they are giving you a ton of space to work in. The area you have to build 1 coaster in is more then the entire room that I am using to build the amusement park in.

Sorry to hear about the set backs in your plans though it sounds as if you have you a good "plan B" ready for action. Good Luck with things and I can not wait to see things unfold.

I hope you can make a really nice looper out of this, and i'm sure that it is going to be huge too!

Good luck doing this! Sad about Silver Star. Hope you can do that some other time!

[Britfag]

I must say, It's nice to see you'll be going for perfection with Silver Star

and I still look forwards to your build

I took the first drop's sketch and added the first element to it. Gonna work on the actual thing this weekend, so stay tuned.

Expect them soon, I guess

I have been working on the megalooper's first inversion all weekend so far. It's a loop, which I based on Time Machine's first loop. I still want to do some extra work on the backbone of the top half of the loop. I will connect the first drop, which I had already built, tomorrow. More pictures then.

So, here are the first publicly published construction pictures:

FINNNNNNNNNNNNNALLYYYYYYYYY. I have been waiting so patiently for a picture of the real coaster and now I have it. You look like Iggfish123 when you build this big.

[TheSUCKCrew]

Wow. That is incredible.
How come you build such awesome things?

[DDRman732865]

I feel like you've done this before...

Me likey.

amazing gump, this one is HUGE but is there any shakes in the loop? i see you only support the high area,and not the begining of it.

[RCT2123]

To tell you the truth, I don't really like the tube supports. I think you should just go box. As for the loop, HOLY F***ING HELL! My heart stopped when I saw this shit. I am so excited.

This will be yet another revolutionary Knex coaster from Gump!! I have never seen anything like this before; I'm astounded.

That loop looks huge! How big is it compared to Saggitarius (sp?) ´s loop??

It must be awesome to see that train going through that loop! I really can't wait to see the lift connected to the lift.

[xx-cyp-62-xx]

wow your looping is very spectacular
is likely to be the best megalooper we have never seen

[TheSUCKCrew]

Have been looking through this 10 times now, and I think it is worth a second comment.
The more I look at it, the better the shaping becomes.
It's so freaking huge, you are kind of a god...

[WardCoastez]

^yes! everybody has to worship gumpius, the god of tubes!

[maarten12]

That is nothing less than I expected from you Jochem ! I guess this is going to be the best looper ever built with K'nex.
