I started on a woodie this time, mainly because they look awesome, but I never finished one.

Anyway, no story this time.
The name, up to you guys!

So the lift is done, I will be building it downstairs this time, and maybe move it up later... Depends if I deconstruct Tachophobia anytime soon.

If I don't move it upstairs it means I'll have to move my PC downstairs to record the onride, because, well onrides are cool

Why is everyone building woodies? Looks good though.

[~G3n3rOo2256~]

the lift looks bumpy

[LukeIsLuke]

The pull-in is extremely sharp.

[Maxlaam]

What do you mean the lift looks bumpy, its straight as err, a err..
Whatever its straight enough, at least more straight than my lifts usually are.

Also Notice the angle of the lift, whoever says it first gets a virtual cookie.

I'll help you guys a little btw
tan A = BC/AB
tan A = 3/4
Have fun!

^ Yeah err, I guess I'll stretch it out a little, I'll do it right away btw.

[Airtime]

Everything looks good to me, are you using 2 motors or 1?

EDIT: 75% slope?

[Maxlaam]

2 Motors, btw this reminds me to charge the batteries.

Lol 8 minutes and already 4 replies... SSC is active tonight

Edit:

^In % yes, but I'd like to know it in Degrees.

Have a half cookie.

[~G3n3rOo2256~]

might just be me but looks like theres a bump in the middle

[Jplaz]

Good luck with having enough pieces

[Maxlaam]

Fixed the pull in, also I might lower it sometime... Not sure yet, lets see how piece consuming the first part is.

Pull-in

Also ^^ point out the bump please?

^Thanks

[Britfag]

I love how it's not quite 45*
Looks amazing, keep going

It's 37* right?

[lazor 22]

Somewhere between 35 and 40 maybe???


BTW, there is no bump. Looks good so far.

[DDRman732865]

might just be me but looks like theres a bump in the middle

FAIL!

See how this compares to Tachophobia.

[Maxlaam]

Update!

I made a turning drop, how original xD
Anyway, I never knew they were such a pain to build, but I think I did quite well, comments and criticism is very appreciated!






The hearth lining isn't perfect but I think it looks sexy.

Another sexy look


@ Minimoggi, haha, if Coasteradict didn't tell you in the convo I'd give you 2 cookies, now, have 1.

@ Lazor 22
Correct, 37* and thanks

@ DDR, Tacho was crap, lol. this will be much better, I'm trying to make this have a realistic speed so the onride will kick ass!

[Coasteradict]

NNNNOOOOOO(ES) don't do heartlining on a woody, silly boy, woodies arent heartlined. Also in the pic showing the heratlining, it looks as if the turns like a hexagon :/ fix it please, but other than that it looks good, thanks for the cookies btw

[NitroDude319]

^ I agree at the end dont make it heartlined just keep it straight.

[KingsIslandFreak]

3rd pic looks as if theres a few bumps.

[lazor 22]

Keep the Heatlining!!! I think it looks awsome. The drop has a few "bumps" in it were the orange/black connecters are. It still looks pretty cool though.

[Maxlaam]

Thanks guys, I'll keep the hearthlining, Gump told me to keep it too, so I guess I follow his advice, anyway I think I removed most of the bumps, I'm working on a buckle kind of thing now, but progress is slow. Maybe I'll have a small update later tonight. Also Woodies eat those pieces really fast, so I think I might come short on the color scheme I am using now, I still got a lot of 3D connectors left, I guess I will keep it low to the ground most of the time though. maybe a few airtime hills but not much more than that.

Thanks for the comments, I feel like I am finally building something worth posting here. (Cough Tachophobia)

[Britfag]

Sounds good, I would keep the heartlining too,
and remove the straight orange connectors, replace them with X-Ties
