Here is my heartline roll tut that people have been asking for. Hope you like it!

Part 1: The Structure


Step 1: Build the base


Step 2: The walls (build 2 of these)


Step 3: Attach wall 1


Step 4: Attach wall 2


Step 5: Attach the middle section


After tracking, it should look somewhat like this. You will probably have to mess with it.

If anyone builds this, please tell me how it went.

Almost the same as Sebas's roll, you're using white rods instead of greens though.

[imakecoasters]

I think all of the heartline rolls look awesome... I'm for sure about a[nother] future themed room coaster (don't remember I said this,:tmbs ) that will have a heartline roll. The train will go kind fast through it, like Maverick.

Thanks for the tutorial!

^Yeah well, before all of these new methods popped up a couple monthes back, it was actually a challenge to build a heartline roll.

Great tutorial though, maybe you could add a bit more on how to track the roll after the structure is done?

[CoasterBuilder]

^^I'm glad you like it. I made the tut with many supports so it will not lose much speed. Some of the supports aren't necessary though.

^Once I'm done with Summit, I will add a tracking part to the tut comparing 3 different methods of tracking it. That's why I labelled it part 1.

It is a good tut and will come in handy for me...I always have problems with those damn things, and now I can follow this one, so I know I have the right placing...I so like the lots of supports since I have the pieces for it...

[Chubs33]

I just tried it and it looks great! But the only problem is is that it sometimes rubs against the side of the track ties . But I was just thinking that the problem could be that I am using a rippin rocket car instead of a Screamin Serpent which is at my friends house:durh . But it looks awesome and is well supported so I give this tut an A!

[CoasterBuilder]

Yeah, all you have to do is use the SS train instead of a RR car. I'm glad to see that it worked so good for you. Its nice to know that someone used it.

[alexandgruntz]

I used it, worked great!

[RCT2123]

Look carefully on Inferno's Heart Loop, and you will notice I used it too...

^what ever happened to Inferno?

[RCT2123]

^Just haven't been in the mood to work lately. It is still standing just waiting to be worked on. I will suprise you guys one day...

Wow, this tut gave me a nearly perferct heartline roll.
Excellent job and keep up with more tuts because yours are good.
A+

[coastermaniac]

nice tip you help me alot but if i didn't have the red tubing is the greens one in ss are equivalent?

[Coaster105]

^yes the screaming serpant tubing is equivalent to the red tubing. all the sets with track connectors, are compatible.

[CoasterBuilder]

^^^ I'm glad I could be of help.

After I finish Thunderstruck, I plan on making a tut or two. Are there any requests? Also, I plan on testing different lubricants to find out which ones are the very best.

[RCT2123]

I would suggest a Corkscrew tutorial, that is really the only other element that tends to be around the same size from coaster to coaster...A lifthill would be a good one too, for the newbs...

-Rct2123:cool:

[fastman xc]

^wow, you were up late....
^^corkscwew would be nice, a hammerhead tut would also work.

[CoasterBuilder]

^^ For a corkscrew, I would just suggest using coasterguy's tutorial. Its really easy and smooth (now if only I could find it). Though a lifthill tutorial might be good, considering some people really need it.

^ A hammerhead would be really difficult, and they come in many sizes. Anyone who builds one should be a good enough builder to not have to follow someone else's tutorial.

What about a helix tutorial with 3 different methods?

[fastman xc]

^good point. helix tut would be interesting.
