Here's how I spent my Christmas break. I've been itching to build something big for a while.

What to build.....
Posted 01 January 2017 - 11:23 PM
How dare you taunt us with a full set up and brief video of the trains leaving the station... Unless... the full video isn't on Zornhub is it?! 
Jokes aside all I can say is wow... Sorry Gump but this kicks Trinity's ass! Fantastic build all around! I really like the classic duelling layout - suits the scale of this build perfectly. Seriously can't wait to see a video of this elegant monster in action

Looks like you've come back in style!
The scale of this thing is just immense and I'm a big fan of the layout. Reminds me a lot of the original Colossus if that was the intention
Honestly, it's perfect. Can't wait to see more!

This post made my day. 
The scale of this model is impressive, especially just how thick the structure is. That's all I can say because speechless.

Ugh its to good dude, wish we had a construction thread to follow this coaster's progress I dont see why not? Can we get a test video of it running at least? I love putting the tubing or chain on the track too. I could've helped do that lol, I have moved many coaster before so I know how it feels for sure.

Dude, how many bottles of 5 hour energy did you consume to make this beast? I'm a little bit concerned.

That is massive! Not that I did not like the smaller coasters that you have mostly built recently, but seeing you building something at a bigger scale like this is very exciting as well. I like the classic lay-out and I am looking forward to a video!

That was awesome.
Amazing creation, pretty much out of nowhere too. I'm blown away by the size of this build, as well as the amount of parts you have! On such a large scale, it really showcases your building expertise as well as your attention to detail.
I imagine it must've been a really fun Christmas break project.
