Sorry to hear that about your girlfriend and such, but at least you're making money with work.

That looks awesome! I'm glad to see you building again! I'm not fully understanding the two chains, is there a particular reason for having both?
Thank you! There's one for the brake run and one for the station.
Good to see you building again. It looks very classic, good work.
Thank you!
It has always surprised me how you can make such amazing coasters with such small parts count. This is no exception.
Learning tricks to save pieces help a lot. Thanks!
It's awesome to see you getting back to building for at least one coaster. Everything looks nice with that neat JP style!
Sorry to hear that about your girlfriend and such, but at least you're making money with work.
Thank you!
looks great dude and your building skills have made this coaster look great so far sorry to hear about your girlfriend and if this is what your building is like you should be the same thing i wanna be an architect but looks great dude
I'm studing in architecture right now. It's a captivating occupation. Thanks!
I'm loving that speed on the elevated turn. So good to see you building again, JP!
Thank you!
Sorry it took me so long to reply, I passed out for a few days when I saw this thread. So excited, I love your projects.
I hope you're all right now. Thanks!
It's time an update! I've built a hill to reach the second turn and the track part of this turn. I used a bit a twistyness to connect to bottum of the hill to the beginning of the turn. Here's what it looks like :

Is that a picture of the channels in Amsterdam in your room? It looks like it is, awesome! Amsterdam is one hour driving away from me.

It is cool to see that you maintained your same building style, even though you have not built a coaster for ages. The coaster looks good, very classic. Is that a picture of the channels in Amsterdam in your room? It looks like it is, awesome! Amsterdam is one hour driving away from me.
Thank you! Yes it is, you're so lucky to live near this city. I might go to Amsterdam and Germany in May/June to learn more about European architecture.
That looks awesome! Everything looks perfect and I really like the twisty bit to the turn.
Are you going to enter this in summer heat?
Thanks! I don't think so, I'm building just for fun!
That is so awesome. The twisty part is cool too!
Thanks!
Looking good! Cool layout so far.
Thanks!
Amazing, you just made a ssimple Woodie design so beautiful, good job on the twisty bit.
Thank you!
This is really amazing! I like it very much, and I can't wait to see what's next. Have you considered building a tunnel into this ride? With the layout, I think a tunnel would look nice. What do you think?
Thanks! A tunnel would certainly look nice but I'm not sure about it because of the length of the layout. It would hide a big part of the track.
Holy Smokes! JP is building again! It looks outstanding as usual! I really like the support style you've got on this one!

Thank you!
Shaping is solid, definitely. However, I'm not a fan of the supports in the transition to the turn. They're not very woodie-esque; they don't really follow the track, and it looks kinda awkward.
Thanks! I don't think it is that bad. I couldn't do much better because of the complexity of this part as the supports have to cross over the low track.
I've completed the layout this week and added a handrail to give a wooden coaster look to the ride. The station is still missing and I will also add a little bit of theming. Here's what it looks like :
