Hello again! I moved to a new house recently (parents are splitting up for a bit), and I had the urge to build as soon as we were done packing! All of my piece aren't over to the new house yet, but the majority of the pieces I use most are over here. Over the weekend, I managed to get quite a lot done (and watch one-and-a-half seasons of Arrested Development) and I'm pretty proud of it. Enough talking! Pictures:

Overview (Yes, it is a drill launch.)



Top-hat. I know the top is a bit flat, but it should be fixed by the next update!







The Launch!



Station





The Drill



The train right now is not weighted and has not been lubed for a while, but it gets over with decent speed. If you find any flaws or bumps, please tell me!

Sorry about your parents. However, the coaster looks really cool so far. I love it! The top looks a bit funky but hopefully after you add more track it will look better. I can't wait to see what your layout looks like!

BTW, I'd recommend a 4 car train.

Ya, I do also recommend a 4 car train. Looks good so far. My parents also split up recently. Good luck!!

Hey, I've got the same drill as you! It's so good for launches Your tophat looks pretty weird right now, but I'm sure you're changing the shape a lot as you build the second half. Can't wait to see more.

The pull-in is looking really good! I agree that the shaping of the tophat is a little strange but you'll definitely be able to smooth it out with the second half built.

Hey sorry about your parents :/ but on a more positive note it looks really good so far can't wait to see the rest of the layout! And how good is the drill launch? I've never tried it but it seems like it would be affective (:
