Looks really cool.
I dont see anything wrong.
And this is going to be one sturdy-ass coaster.

[decaxxeca]

how does the lift work?

[coasterkid101]

^The thing in the middle spins. There are hooks on the car that git hit by the spinning thing and get pushed were the track goes.

Does the lift work?

[Jogumpie]

There is actually just one hook on the car. And yes, it works.

I just checked the first drop again and the banking is looking correct. I lowered one support halfway down, though, to make it a little smoother.

The track's going upwards again. I'll get a picture of the gear installation, some POV pictures and a picture of the new part as soon as it's done.

Wow, that is one hell of a coaster. I cannot wait for you to keep moving on xD!

I'm really anxious to see more >.<

[TripleHelix]

In the first picture, does the angle make the banking look like a bump between the second and third columns, or is it a real bump?

Also, I think you should kind of make it like Eurosat and Euro Mir, where it twists all around the spiral lift 'n stuff:

[Jogumpie]

I have space constraints, but I do what I can. I was indeed about to build a lot of turns. Actually the first drop will be very alike Euro Mir's first drop. (Btw, EuroSAT was one hell of a ride. Especially the turn into the brakes.)

I think you miscounted the columns. In the first picture it looks like a bump between the third and fourth column. It's actually the angle. I would've taken better pictures if I wasn't in a hurry when I uploaded the pictures.

Btw, I decided to have the entrance and exit right below the lowest part of the first drop. It's just the perfect spot, you'll see.

[Coasteradict]

I'm loveing that drop, same it's your last. (Hope you, rollerdude, and CC10 do one more secretly)...

[DJMK]

It looks really good but it seems like you used half of your 3D connectors. I'm guessing you still have something else up?

And I can't see the SoF footer picture.

[decaxxeca]

i see how the mechanism works now thank you

[Maverix]

in the first pic the drop looks funny to me but in the second pic it looks fine(must be the angle) yeah if you could have it "revolve" around the lift that would be sick.

[Jogumpie]

Here are some pictures from two days ago.

I love the top view, this is hilarious how many pieces you have. I have never seen a style like this before. Very creative.

I just can't see this thing being transported...

[DDRman732865]

Awesome, it flows so well.

^Notice how the base is all connected very strongly? That will make it possible to carry.

[Britfag]

A work of art.

(well, a GOOD work of art)

its flowing and smooth!

cant wait to see it finished

bummer its your last though.

[Coasteradict]

I think you should attempt some sort of invesion on this coaster.....

[coasterkid101]

^I think that would not be flowing.
I am tring a spiral chain lift but it will be on top of a tall tower!

[Coasteradict]

^Not if he had a dive loop next....

[Antinos]

So far, so good gump. I'm guessing a helix next?

Nice dive machine trains in the background of the first pic.

[Airtime]

Also nice shoes in the 4th pic.
