I'm thinking about going for a 7th attempt at

finishing one of these. I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas that I could use

since I'm not too good at planning these things. I only have 2 sets but I think I

could build a long coaster (with the correct placement and use of supports).

Well, since I can't my edit my post from this

user name. (I don't feel like switching either) Here's a picture

(screenshot) of what I hope it will look like. Ignore the supports for now because they

won't look like that (they might but higly unlikely.

Um, can I get some comments please.

Anyone?

You can make the lift steeper so you can get more

hills and inversions in.The coaster in the screen shot looks kind of dull.

Make a tower-like suport structure, and have the

track 'tangle' in and out of the support structure. The whole ride will be

contained within one support structure, yet you can have length. Be sure to have a ton

of head choppers.

I once started a coaster like that, but left my window

open and the wind knocked the tower down, and I never re-started it. (Mabey

that's why none of my models work, Mabey I quit too easily)

Well, I've been thinking about chanking the

layout to something like this:

station, lift, 180 spiral drop, 45 degree helix, up

hill, brakes (prob not though), swooping 180 drop into station.

I got this cool

camera/video recorder toy for Christmas so I can take pictures of it now (if I even get

it started or done).
