First of all, Happy New Year everyone!
After k'nexing myself out over the Summer I'm ready to start a new project, a B&M flyer.
I've wanted to build a flying/inverted coaster for some time and noticed a lack of good tube supported ones, some I hope I can add to that short list. I haven't had much time to make progress over Christmas so I've only managed to put up the lift, and can already see it's going to be a lot harder supporting this. I've got the worst bit out the way now, I hate building lift hills, so it should be more enjoyable from this point onwards.
I have rough idea of the layout and have an interesting first drop planned. The next update may be sometime however, as up until the start of July I'll only have the odd weekend free.
I would have made a sleeker lift hill but I was thinking about how easily the sections could be cut up and taken outside when I set up the final model. So the lift hill is a bit chunky, but its sturdy enough. And there are still a few more details to be added, catwalks etc.
