The bottom of the pull-out is kind of sharp. Looking Good!

[~stεεlspectrum~]

It looks good, I like the predrop a lot. The only thing I might point out is that the crest looks abnormally large...is this still going to be of the 1920's style?

[Fraggie]

^^ yea ignore the bottom, it isn fully supported yet. but thank you
^you mean the lifts crest? i was just building the lift's crest big because that was the ay the other woodies was. im not sure if im gong for the 20's style or not

thanks for the comments, keep 'em coming guys!!!

[~stεεlspectrum~]

Well no, I was referring to the beginning of the drop being somewhat large, sorry for confusion. It looks pretty much fine, just a little weird.

[dylan]

I like it frags and why is this not in derected or sponsored construction?

[Fraggie]

^i just put it in free lance.
^^i like the drop they way it is. i dont want it to just fall down, i was going for a gradual drop.
i will probably nt be updating for a while, my mom isnt letting me wor on the coster until i study for the permit test. but i will probably sneak a little building in this weekend so look for an update.

[rollercoasterfanatic919]

I like the drop, but you may want to make the supports closer to the track up near the top of the drop, it will make it look more like a woodie. The rest is nice, this looks promising!

[BBaller347]

^Exactly what I was going to say. It looks weird how the track is so far away from the supports on the drop's crest, but the track goes into the supports at the pull-out of the drop. Balance that out a little more. I really like the crest and pre-drop.

[Fraggie]

^ & ^^ yea i noticed that too, and it ias already fixed. hopefully i can build this weekend. next in the layout is some sort of turnaround.

[Fraggie]

update!!! i finished the pull-in, crest, and started the drop. i just want to make sure the shaping on the drop is ok. please let me know of any problems, no matter how small.

In the last picture, the angle of the decline seems to get greater near the end, so you might want to think about making it more even. The rest looks pretty nice, I like the degree of the lift hill.

[maarten12]

I like it. Fix what rcf919 said and you'll be fine.

[Fraggie]

^ & ^ i fixed that last part. i also finished the rest of the turn and made a speed hill over the pullout of the first drop. i have no idea what to do next though, any suggestions?

here are the pictures:

next Put a hill with a banked turning drop exiting parallel with the lift

[crazywhizz100]

i like the air hill. its looking good.

[Pyro]

I think it looks good, but I would bank the drop out of the first hill a bit sooner.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

Looks great! Reminds me of my cancelled coaster (also called Mammoth) I built a while ago (but yours is WAY better):

[Fraggie]

it does, and thanks, but your version is way bigger.
and i might update again tomorrow so be on the look out.

[Fraggie]

another update, but this will probably be the last for a little while. my soccer season is ending soon, i still need to get my permit, and with homework, i dont have as much time to build. but i will try to get a little building in now and then. anyways, here are the pictures.
