^Because it's not so much of a good question.

MOST OF YOUR QUESTIONS AREN'T GOOD! DAMN...

Buritto, I really like it so far! If you're running out of K'nex I might be able to sell you everything I got! (for a fair price of course)
Just to help you finishing this... Yum

^haha i saw your hidden message.
i think that the turn is perfect, but i think it banks to soon.

[the_burrito_master]

^no it's not perfect but it looks pretty good for my first attempt

^^wow you'd really sell your knex to me! cool. if I win the winter contest I'll send you some money for parts I want.
yes I am really running out of parts XD
nice sig!

sirchubs: no I didn't mention using *cringe* boosters *gulp* but if I HAVE TO I might.

steelspectrum: it looks steep because it's at a 458 angle almost the whole time so yeha it dose stay at relatively the same angle.

Note. Track at the end is not supported well so it's gonna be strait. I"m, using grays.

[DDRman732865]

It's smooth, I really like it. The only thing that may be iffy is the fact that the supports are really far away from the track in the pullout.

[LCAL]

My only concern is that this thing is huge. Will you be able to have enough pieces to create the whole ride?

[knexems]

Considering that he built Maverick well, I think he does.

Oh and I looks really, really good. I didn't even notice you were using the table as support until right now. XD

[~stεεlspectrum~]

It looks good, but something is throwing it off for me, I think it's the banking. Anyways, good, move on!

[the_burrito_master]

I figured out I have a problem with the crest of the dive loop.

I made it go on a 90* and it should be on 45* angle.

It wouldn't make it change so much but I thing I can re-do it easily enough without re doing my whole support structure.

I'll have an update of it finished when I fix the problem. (yes I did finish the whole incline dive loop)

[~stεεlspectrum~]

^ That's it! It was turning too far. Post some pics of when you finish it!! Please!

[Loop De Loop]

WOW im speachless. MORE UPDATES!!!!!! THIS IS AWSOME!

[Coaster55]

The highest point on the dive loop should be within the first 45 degrees of it turning, then start dropping. It should also be banked most at the highest point, and slowly unbank on its own until it's parallel to the ground.

[the_burrito_master]

I have no idea why this picture it looks all weird like this 0_o
http://www.sscoaster...=1&d=1234322190

So it's close but it's not perfect.

[SwimZONE]

It looks like the drop is too steep...but it looks smooth. I can't really compare well...

[RCT2123]

I think it looks awesome...

-Rct2123:cool:

[msoccerkidm]

it looks good.

[CuteLittleBunny23]

The shape isnt perfect IMO but its good enough. And I think a lot of your supports are stressed...

[Kool Coaster Kid]

Yah, I agree with ^, the supports are stressed. I dont like how you put the supports on the table. Cant you move it? Looks good other then that. How high is your lift?
BTW, I like your dog.

[coastercrazy10]

Something looks strange about the last picture. I think the pullout of the dive loop is a bit too big, although i'm not too sure how much you can do about it/if that's actually a problem. I love the banking and how flowing it is though. Here's to hoping you have enough pieces for this

I know the shape isnt perfect but it's pretty darn close and it looks good. it looks more like an overbank lol.

I like how the supports are on the table it saves me pieces and space.
my lift is about 5 ft tall. (up to my shoulder)

The thing is it doesn't even look like that I went back and looked at it and it looked fine 0_o I think that was the old picture that I thought I deleted that I actually deleted the one after I fixed the problems.

Thanks I need all the pieces I can get.

wow I love how I'm actually getting comments again! apparently you guys like re-creations.

Update

I made it as sharp at the top as I could but my speed told me it had to be like this.
comment criticize!

[spousl16]

What's up with all of the plastic bags?

The zero-g looks pretty good, but could we get a side view. And I do hope your going to support the top of that roll right?
