Hello, I'm new to this site, but have been building with knex for awhile. I was wondering if I have enough peices to construct a 4.5' lift hill looper. Here's what I have so far:
SS x2-3
RR x1
And a LOT of other miscellaneous peices (maybe 10k)

You certainly can in a compact layout. Could probably manage 2 to 3 inversions.

 

P.S. Welcome to the site!

Thanks,
What kind of coaster would you recommend I start with? I've worked with these coasters before, but what is a good type to start out with.

Build towards something that will help your technique, such as trying to build a new inversion.

Ok, today I'm breaking down all my old creations and organizing the parts. I'll start a construction topic once I'm ready, thanks for the help.

Are there any substitutes for the new VV gears for the chain lift?
