MY Next coaster will be a invert, my first, should

include one loop and a barrol-roll. Will be good.

Wow, I am surprised at the sudden interest in

inverts! I build one, than coasterfreak says he is going to build one, now you.

Good luck!

[gforce]

I've had one drawn up for awhile and I've

never built one so here I am! This topic can be moved to the construction forums

if a mod could do that. thanks.

[coasterfreak11]

Mine is still under construction!! But it is

coming along pretty well!!

I'm having trouble making the loop and to make

it more complicated the lift goes through the loop at an angle.


total

hours of work=3.5

[Westside7th]

Are you using custom cars? How big is the loop?

[gforce]

I don't know for either...lol... I think I might turn

the loop into a corkscrew or 0 g roll that goes over the lift and then make the loop go

somewhere else. The train won't have a complete custom but it'll have a

small bar connected to a 45 degree connector to another 45d.c. and then to the peep.

You prbably didn't get that but I'll start on the train later today and post a

picture.


4 hours of work done so far.

Edit=looking on

other threads I found a good pic of what i was trying to describe and it ended up like

yours Sorry

I'm not trying to copy you

Maybe I need to quit doing this G- code name. Its bad

luck!I haven't been able to finish one since. I use to take pride in finishing

my coasters. Anyways I will be making G3 which will be a compact twister. Its name

will be Transit Twister.

tran·sit ( P ) Pronunciation Key (trnst, -zt)

1.The act of passing over, across, or through; passage.

Hopefully this coaster will have a lot of fly-bys, near misses, compact, and very

twisty.

Stay tuned!

Sorry the invert didn't work out, especially the

loop over the lift. I've had a similar idea in my head for a while too, but my work

on "My First Custom" has kept me from experimenting. And from what

I've done so far, with the three very close calls, I'd like to see what your

twister turns out to be. Once I started with the first cross over, I had and still have an

obsession with "headchoppers" and close calls. If there were little top hats

for the riders on the trains, they wouldn't return to the station with them on.

Can't wait to check out G3, and maybe we'll see an invert from you soon

too.
