I have just started on the corkscrew on my new

coaster. This will be the inversion it has (i'm halfway through it).

Pics later tonight

P.S. This is the third coaster

I've made in about a month

[RollercoasterC]

My camera is unable to take pictures at the

moment, gotta get it fixed .

Anyway i'll just describe it to you, I

used the lift hill from C2 and made some extra supports on the end of it. I have the lift,

then a drop going into a banked turn which then goes into the corkscrew, i got the

corkscrew off Andrews showcase because after many tries of making one, i was still

unable to get it to work. Anyway after the corkscrew it then goes around and has a

turn back to the lift hill (as non-banked as i could)

This i feel is the

smoothest coaster I have made yet using all but 3 green ties from this one set.

Just to let everyone know, i am getting another set soon as it arrives (i got it

for christmas) and when i get some more money i will eventually get a third.

Will it have more inversions after the corkscrew?

[RollercoasterC]

Nah, it doesn't have enough speed, remember

this is a one set coaster. I have just convinced my parents to get me another set for

christmas plus the one i am getting from my grandparents. That will be a total of 3

Ok, I've just modified C3 so it has some sort of

inversion after the corkscrew making it my first two inversion coaster ever

:). I feel pretty pleased bout

that.

Anyway i will try and get some pics for you soon

The drop looks very painful! That turn at the

bottom would kill you realistically. The corkscrew is good but I can tell you used the

tutorial from Andrew's Coaster site. The the barrel roll is ok.

It is a nice coaster overall but could use some improvement. Good job for only one

set!

Well i did

have the coaster alot smoother when i didn't have that roll at the end, but then

once i put that in, i needed to take some other green ties from around the place making

not as smooth. The drop, yes would kill you but it does give you alot of speed which i

need for this coaster.

(about the

corkscrew, i told everyone above that i used the tutorial because mine didn't

work)

Why the hell do the poor peeps on your coaster have

to go sideways through the drop, it would kill you... and maybe its neccesary, but it

looks weird...

[RollercoasterC]

Its different, most people have normal drops, i on the

other hand want to be different

[FunkMaestro]

But dont you want to be sensable, realistic, normal or

a lifekeeper? I mean if people at Intamin or B&M saw that drop they would

laugh their swiss butts of... no offense. Really, otherwise its nice
