I didn't even know this type of drop was possible to do justice with micro K'Nex. Well done dude.

I didn't even know you could shape VV track that well. Way to exceed everyone's expectations with every coaster you build, Stig.

Oops, this next one is sideways.

EDIT: Hey! See those extra rods on top the loop? They're just there for looks and they didn't come out the way I wanted them to. Should I fix them or just take them off?

That's a...very interesting lift hill there. Shaping looks spot on and the loop looks nice. I'm looking forward to this.
