Man, has it been a long time since I've built! I am happy to return with this Red Rod wooden RMC! It will be heavily inspired by Outlaw Run, Goliath, and Storm Chaser. I plan on doing either a zero g roll drop or a dive loop drop, if those don't work, it'll be a normal steep drop. The lift is inspired by Goliath. This will also be the first coaster to use my steel weights. I don't have a lot more to say honestly! Any advice is welcome! Here, I'll just show the pictures. Enjoy!

These new woodies with inversions... now they got woodies with flying snake dives and rollin' dives and Luna knows what else...

It looks like a promising start so far. I'll have to keep track of this.

Looks good! I can't wait to see more. How tall is it in rods?

Could do with maybe a touch more banking in the valley but aside from that, it looks very solid and well constructed.

Hey guys, I just gut a quick word update on why there hasn't been an update recently. After the first update, we had a lot of work in our basement, which is where I build. That stopped about a week after the first update. After that, I got pounded with work from school and my music career. So more recently, I hurt my ankle and couldn't build with out having very bad pain. So as soon as I recover, work will start up again. I have changed my mind in the two drops and am doing a 90 degree stall into a turning drop. It will be very cool! Thanks for reading!

Okay, I think I made this project too big. I am cancelling it. I know my problem is that I build too big. I lose interest due to slow progress. I will be starting a smaller project that should be quicker to build so yea. This project is done.

I thought for the longest time I do the same thing where I make my builds too big for the amount of pieces I have, and while I wait for my pieces I am forced to buy, I lose interest and take it done anyways. It really sucks to hear this, but I feel you 100 percent. Good luck on your next project!

I do the same thing, always. (Vortex, Pacific Rwister, that one Togo Coaster, etc) it's cool man.

That's all right, it happens to everyone. This looked like a really cool concept, so maybe you can revisit it in the future.

Thanks guys, it means a lot to have support of my decision. I promise I will have a new project that is higher quality and actually completable. There could be a revisit of one or two successful or even ones that were not in the near future!
