You continue to amaze me. I love it. A few spots are a little shaky but that is expected with this big of a model with tube supports. You are defiantly one of my favorite builders.
Great work.
Great work.

what do you mean?Excellent video sir. Obviously a bit of shaking due to the tube supports but overall i think you've put yourself firmly in a category of famed members around here. Now just don't find yourself drifting away while you're in your prime.

Was a song that went well! Thanks!omfg i love that song. great vid great coaster. i hope i can finish riptide before top model 1. cause i know youll win. i wanna save burning rush for a contest where it might have a chance.
Done, and done^ Same with me, I want to save my coasters for a smaller contest so I at least have a chance of winning.
Could someone please embed the video? Youtube is blocked...
I know! I was thinking the exact same thing when I was watching it. I was like, wow, it looks as if it made the MCBR by itself!Looks fantastic! Love the MCBR, it doesn't even look like its being pulled.. Great shaping on everything, and like the song! Keep it up!!

^20 bucks says he does behemoth. I watched this video in awe. It's now my all time favorite k'nex roller coaster. Great job Mike. I think we can all agree that you are the king of tube supports.

Awesome coaster. Definitely your best. It shows that the tube supports when used properly can get you nice proportions and minimal speed loss. Hope to see more from you and mixed with some new innovations, to make an even greater coaster.

The coasters these days are phenomonal. The way you can make a coaster that large with tube supports amazes me. Definately one of my favorites.
