how many sets do you have? woodies are MAJOR piece eaters...looking good so far though!

Yeah, knexaholic on youtube built one named firewood . DeAzncy is right about the piece eater thing, but this has a relatively short layout, so you should be fine. Is it 3' 4" right now, or will it be that tall? You may want to shorten the height; the layout is too short for your height I think. Good luck!

EDIT: ^Two sets won't be enough-even with the piece saver.

[Jplaz]

I highly doubt you can pull it of with just 2 SS sets....good luck though!

If you looked at my woodie I was making last, I have 2 ss 1rr, some smaller sets, and 600 extra blue rods. I used all of them on the woodie. (Rolling Hills)

[coastermaniac]

make that lift hill smaller !!! You should have way enough speed with 9 blue rod high...

[DDRman732865]

You could do it, just not that tall. You probably used a whole SS on that lift, or close.

Still, good luck

You may want to move the bottom gear higher otherwise it will jerk.

Can I suggest having the turn dip a little bit like on twister? http://coastergaller...m/1999/K12.html

I think that would be cool.

...then you really get confirmed in high school.

Not necessarily, it can be eighth grade.

I'd say it should be able to make it through the layout if the lift stops where it is. Good luck on it!

Im baptist and we do what we want when we want basicly. But yeah you could probably make this layout uf you have enough pecies. I would suggjest building it with a red/green rod supports instead of blue but blue is fine if you have that many pecies.

^ Grammar please.

I agree^ The layout does seem huge and for your first coaster its definantly too big. Have a look at my current woodie. Try that height. Also your gonna need a heck of alot of blue rods, you don't know how many these babies take up. It does look good however
