Wonderful, simply wonderful.

Got it right, I will almost always do a loop since that my space is rectangular and not square

Yay!

I'll mostly get the drop done by tonight and maybe even the B.........

Again, thanks for comments

Batwing?


Nice loop!!!

^Aww dude, we can't hide you anything.
It's raining updates !

Weird batwing is done. I hate the old rails, they break easily and it doesn't make the batwing.





video showing how it's pissing me off .

is it lubed?

try it..

If not, try a smaller train, Inverts need less heavy trains, right?

[KCB Designs]

It sounds like its hitting something when it tries to exit the batwing.

[Sheikra_rocks]

A couple things,

*The train sounds like it is hitting the ground..
*Make the exit a little smaller and it will go over
*I suggest not making a very complicated layout as you are trying to do. Make something simple and advance more as you learn more about the stuff.

*YOU are doing something wrong if the rails are breaking.
*You may need to make the lift and drop taller, you need more speed.

^It's hitting a rail connection and the rail broke alone, I cut the rail on the lowest stressed area there and it still broke in half.

I will change the layout since there is no way I can get the train back with this layout.

I never did something wrong, I only said that the new rails are better.

I don't need anymore speed with the lube.

Would you believe it ? I finished this coaster in 3 days. Another reason why I love CD, you can't lose interest. I finally did a twisty element and it turned out pretty good. This was my third custom named OMG.

At some spot there is only 1mm of clearence.

[coastermaniac]

^^Thanks
^Yeah, I'd call this element a twisted Bowtie Thanks though.

Sorry for the bad lightning on the video.

[Britfag]

Nice, My favourite CD ever!
I like the "twisted bowtie" too.

[coastermaniac]

^Really ? Thanks !

[~stεεlspectrum~]

This looks awesome! This is also my favorite CD coaster ever!
BTW, a regular bowtie normally exits in the opposite direction of the entrance, in case you didn't know.

ALL of my rails are like that. They keep splitting in half, so I can't build any scorpion-sized coasters. How did you get around it?

[VV Khan]

I love it. Nice and quick aswell

Ah, but this is a twisted bowtie... This is really sweet!! I love the twister section and the speed level throughout the ride. Now I really, really,really want a scorpion!!

I keep it splitted but I sanded the bottom part to it doesn't slow down too much .

^^&^thanks

[reaperdoctor]
