SoF by Jogumpie has a nice one. I think the first overbank could still use some touch up.

Just fix the bump on the right side of the overbank in picture 3 and it should be fine.

A lot of Intamin's coasters have buckels, rcdb them for more pictures.

^ The bump in the first overbank, I think, is getting enlarged by the picture. I know what you are talking about but I barely can see it when I look at the real coaster. Also, thanks for the pictures of the buckels. Does my buckel have to shift that much in a direction or could the twisting part be more at a slighter angle?

I'm afraid I have some bad news:

Since Christmas is coming near, my parents want the Christmas tree up by Saturday. The Christmas tree goes in the corner near the first overbank. So that means that the coaster will have to be done by then. I am going to need a quick layout from you guys to finish the coaster that I can build fast. I want to get a helix in there somehow, by the way.

Comment please!

Curcuit Complete!

Taurus in now finished! I had to make the rest the coaster in like two days, so it's not very good. I literally had to take it apart right after I took the final video. I hated doing it, but my mom was hosting a Christmas party that day. The station could of been beter, also. Enjoy!!!

I really like how you used what was already in the room and put it into you're coaster, looking forward to more like these from you. The ending could have been better, but very smooth for being rushed.

Please watch it in high quality because in normal quality it looks ridiculously horrible. Even in high quality it still looks pretty bad. :(

Could some please tell me how to embed the video? Thanks.

Very well done, especially for the coasters height. For the video, take all the letters and numbers after the equal sign in the URL, then put it between [youtube*] [/youtube*].

^^Thanks, but when I embeded the video, it didn't let you click on the high quality button and I want people to watch it in high quality. Thanks for the advice though, I will use it in my later videos.

looks great. only the over bank you fell on had the bump and strait part still in it.

I think I'm going to recreate Goliath pretty soon. the beginning looks really fun and "m going to do it in tube supports.
