Yeah, just stop biting people's heads off when

they give a bit of construction critisizm that you don't agree with, then saying you

fixed it so that it as absolutely PERFECT then never post pics to prove it

:angry: . So please will you stop

bickering with each other? Your starting to sound like my grandparents...

lol. Is'nt it just great when

people can lauph. :-D.

In all honesty and pasts aside squirrel, the lift is

okay, straighten out the lift and it should be good, here is a friendly suggestion, try

using grey rods in place of the flexi rods and it should make it more straight.

You could name it after the movie earth quake, lol. Just kidding squirrel.

:) I am anxious to see a

millennium force though, this way with competition they will build until the other runs

out of pieces to top the other one.

Not a bad attempt. It needs smoothing. The supports

need to be angled after the cross support structure. On the drop, is that 80 degrees? Id

use a protactor to get it right. Also, the drop's pull-out needs to be bigger and

more spread out. On the real thing, there is very little straight 80 degree track.

Looks like a pretty good start, Squirrel, but

there's just one question. Are you going to have room for this? Your lift seems

to start right at the wall.

Also, good luck installing the gears for the chain at

the top of you lift now that you've already topped it off. I hope you have a good

step ladder. I did the same thing on Race Thru The Clouds, but not next time.

;)

I sure hope

you can finish your Millenium Force. B)

Its not bad, but not the best; the height is impressive but

the support structure is not "awe-inspiring" or beautiful, or perfect......

Like I have said before, height isn't everything. I had a nice looking

structure similar to MF awhile ago (I am sure I have a some picture somewhere), it

was only 4 ft tall, but it looked very nice and almost exactly like the MF

structure....

Why don't you actually spend some time on this model,

you don't have to pump it out in 3 days. Take it slow and make sure its strong

and well devolped.....

The drop is ok but the transition at the bottom is

terrible. The real MF does not go all the way to the ground. You need to make that

transition a lot smoother if you want to maintain your speed from that drop.
