Hello! I've started a new coaster. It has a base which i'm not very good at -yet-
And can somebody help me build a bridge? i'm having trouble. But hope you enjoy the PICS!

Build the rest of the station and roof (if u want) and then it will probably be easier to make a bridge.

On straight parts, like the station, it is better to use greys instead of flexies. Other than that this looks really good.

Hmm, there's noting wrong with the name. The only thing is that spring hast just begun, so I would make up another name (more related to spring) and keep this name for a coaster built in winter. ;)

^I agree about the name with you ;)

You did a good job so far, but do the thing that the others also said: First make the whole station and then come up with a plan for a bridge ;) I'm curious how this coaster will turn out!

My plan for yesterday was to finish the station, but I came down with a stomach virus with 101.3 fever. Ok i'll think about changing the name.

Name's fine, just a bit better for winter than for Spring. For the bridge, just scroll through the winter contest of this year, I thought many people used a bridge because of the fixed layouts.

I've always wodered how you SS builders are able to flex the grey rods. How do you do it?
Also I think the station might need a little bit more added to it. Just do that and you'll be good to go!

I looked at it and don't forget in the end i'm going to have a BRIDGE that leads to the station. And those are white flexis just so ya know.
Keep on Commenting!
Is the name better?
P.S. I think i'm going to add the more supportive flexis with the extra rod on the side. The base I think might be 30x40 of those squares in the end. Also it's tube supported!

What he said above and..

Most VV coasters are on a pretty small scale, thus being too small to bend a gray rod. You have to keep in mind that SS builders will usually build on a much larger scale, so the rods will only bend up to a few centimeters at a time.

Thanks, There will be a turn and then the lift
I think i'm going to down size to about 25x30 or 30x30 but right now i'm almost out of blue rods.:( But with what I have left I will try to start the lift so I can put it on here.

I suggest getting some bleu rods out of the station. And make the station when you are finnished.
