using tyrant scale it is 300 feet tall and I just finished making acurate suports for a
actual cable lift system. I will explain it first buy 5 yellow 1 inch pullys by knex then
take string tie a chain link or to to it and then once it's gone over the hill then put
it in reverse. That took a while to think of. I'm judt starting my drop with track
I have finished the first drop suports.

work too many people think they can do it but they cant and my MF is also beautiful
up to scale looking nice and sharp probably better than yours, and it doesnt matter if ur
station is made of metal ooooo it just has to be realistic you know like the y2k written
on it blue and yellow colors thats what matters the most so people can go hey i know
that coaster thats millenium force in the blink of an eye. Once Im done my coaster I
will add all of the effects possible that I can to it to make it nice, tunnels etc. I also
have a lift system working that is 3x the speed of the normal motor. Just letting you
know who you are competing with

of you has shown any pictures of your models, I don't think you can compare
and claim that yours is the best. Lets mature a bit and stop the petty name calling and
bashing.
I challenge both of you to make the best MF recreation you can and
then we can vote or whatever when you are finished. How about that? It is a little bit
more sensible then name calling, etc.
CoasterGod, you said you will add all
the effects you can to make yours look good; does that include the lagoon?

love? Just make it a friendly competition. Squirrel, dont go saying your lift system is
"perfect". There is nothing that is perfect. I look forward to seeing both of
your "better" creations.

with your imature remarks, you don't have pictures of your "perfect"
cable lift system so on what evidence are you basing your bazaar statements on ? Do
you think you own all these concepts you think of or something, when you are able to
get a patent using somebody elses(Knex) product, then I will congragulate you for not
being sued by knex and won't come and point out that you do not own the
concept of innovation ? For instance, when I made my brakes tutorial I made a
working cable reverse/release lift, that was quite a while ago, so as far as I'm
concerned I could say I made the first cable lift, do you see me going around the board
thinking I can threaten people with my misspelled words, no, that's rediculous.
You can't stop people from thinking up and producing new ideas that you built
two days later and then claiming it in the name of squirrel.
To
moderators: I'm sorry if this sounded like a flame, it was not intended that way. I
just needed to point out that squirrel should not threaten people for using his or the
same ideas, and that there is no relivance of who came up with it first. Please
don't remove this so it might be an example of what not to do in the forums.
