Yes I am making a new coaster named Eclipse.(this is literally my 4th time trying to post this in knex construction). heres a basic layout.
4ft. launched lift hill
90* drop
Sidewinder
Zero-G roll
Inclined loop
The rest is stilll undecided so i am open to suggestions. I am thinking of putting in a block section right after the inclined loop though.
So far i have the launched lift hill and half the sidewinder done. I will be posting some pics later. PLEASE COMMENT

Welcome to the site... Just a few openinig tips/criticisms:
1) use the edit button... we will eventually respond to you.
2) Connect those two tower of the lift together, it gives it more shape.
3) In most situations, the element looks smoother if it has the same pull-out as the element before it.
4) You are a n00b. Haha. Its fine though, not looked down upon.
