It looks decent so far just add more supports. Also vv track is supposed to connect to each other pins pointing the way the train goes and with tab things on the bottom not the top. Other then that looks decent good luck.

Dragon has his track in the same configuration I use.
I put my pins/tabs facing backwards so that the elbows are pointing in the direction of travel. I've found that your chain guide pieces are less likely to fall off that way. And I put my track upside-down so that the little flappy piece isn't in the way of the spine I'm currently using.
Anyways, dragon, is that going to be about how tall the lift will be?

Stig: I'm going for maybe four feet, give or take a few inches.
Alright guys, the lift spine is almost done, just one more segment, and the crest is done, also, pictures later today.

I would suggest going taller, leviathan is a huge coaster.
Automation is my specialty
If only I had more space/pieces/time.

The lift spine looks nice and strong, but the crest looks a little inconsistant. Can't wait to see some trackwork on the drop.

I've almost finished the lift!
To Do:
-Add another support before the first tube
(In all three pictures, you can tell it's sagging)
-Add a support right after the gear
Picture Time!!!
Cool Lighting
