I am just gonna call this speed right now because I dont have a better name.I have a pritty sick layout to.Here are some pics.





Please tell me if the drop looks ok so far.

[~G3n3rOo2256~]

is the drop going to be 45 degrees?

[Outerlimits659]

I think you need to raise the pull-in to the lift. It looks sort of low right now making the lift look weird. Also, your drop should probably start steeper than that.

[MP thrill rides]

The drop is going to be steeper.And the pull in is fixed! I know there is a lot of hyper being made but when I say I have a good layout I mean I have a kick ass layout!

I think you shouldn't bother with stairs yet, there isn't ANY point whilst the coaster is unfunctional, and it saves valuable pieces...

Lift looks good

[the_burrito_master]

looks good here. continue.

[MP thrill rides]

^Um....What?

Update:I build fast.







Please comment and tell me how it looks.

In the second pic, the hill looks a little swirvy-ish.

[coastercrazy10]

Yeah, there's a bump between the first support column of the drop (not the one at the crest) and the one after it. Fix that and it looks pretty good...just be aware that if this thing isn't pretty solid at this stage you're going to lose speed from that turn.

EDIT: also changed the thread title so you're actually using the tags.

That looks good just do what ^ said and you'll be fine.

[MP thrill rides]

^^Thanks I will fix that.
^Thanks.

Looks great! Your tube support skills have improved
This isn't a Diamondback recreation, is it?

[coastercrazy10]

That's what i initially thought, but the turn goes too far...db's is like 10* max from the first drop...it gets to about 45 once it turns to go to the hammerhead.

Why is every one saying it looks great? I'm not being a downer but... there's a major sharp spot at the gears causing the drop to be strait ,and bumpy. also I would recommend gray rods for the drop on the track. The turn looks great though!

can I have a side view of the drop.

^dang man too many Rubik's cubes/puzzles. and i have like no idea how to solve the Rubik's magic

Because it's already been pointed out and yes, it's an obsession.

Sorry no DB recre.^^I would get a side view but so have a pool table in the way.I did put grey rods on the drop to.Right now the drop looks like shit I just don't know how to fix it.

[the_burrito_master]

^^I'm getting a megaminix right now.

well just give us some pics and we can help.

you should move the pool table for the pictures or the coaster.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

In the last picture of your last update, the drop is really bumpy. Try swapping the flexi-rods for long gray ones. Also, you should probably put another support in between each of the long unsupported places at the end of the drop (on the ground).

^^^ Ummm I can't even get 2 whole sides on a Rubik's 3x3 cube. But I have the highest grades in my class. Go figure...no comment...

[MP thrill rides]

^I already put grey rods on the drop.^^I take it you don't have a pool table.The pool table I have is so heavy that you would have to take it apart to move it.I made the drop itself smooth it's just the shaping is really bad and I need help.I will try to get some pics up tomorrow.

needs to bank sooner...at least I think...
