Okay, first off, welcome to sscoasters. Second, I think you should take off the track support, next to the lift hill. Other than that, I can't wait for the layout!

I like it except IMO the lift should be like a 30* angle,and just not a 45* angle. Other than that I cant wait!:)

I think it's fine with a 45° angle.

VV woodie! You should add track though, its kinda hard to see anything wrongwith the shaping with only a track spine.

Okay! It looks like a great start but I'd highly suggest having the track on as you go. It makes it a LOT easier to shape the elements. Especially on a woodie you want everything smooth. Good luck!

I'm going to leave the track support on to give it a smoother ride :)

I'm going to leave it a 45* because i dont have that much room to build it in.

I'll put the track on in the next couple of days.

I see the first pull in is too small, you need to make it much bigger.

Please put on track, we can't judge anything by just a support structure.
