wow, I can't wait to see more of this huge thing. I think that boxes look better on a higher coaster like this, becuase the normal tubes we use are just too thin for those heights ;)! Good luck!

This is going to be AWESOME if you finish it! The crest looks fine and the heartline is fine. Good luck with the coaster! ;)

The beginning of the drop should be tighter, and it needs a little more banking.

It looks good my only nitpick is maybe replace the yellows and reds with grey and greens.

How do your hands feel after taking apart all those tube supports? ;)

I'm just adding to Steel's post - You start banking at the right time, just the turn doesn't go out as far as you have it, and it banks quicker.

I noticed that too but I cant do much about it just yet. once I get the supports to the floor it'll be a lot easier to do.

It looks good my only nitpick is maybe replace the yellows and reds with grey and greens.


not until it's done.

Double post but update!

Well I worked on it for a half an hour and I think I got it way ,way ,better now. still a bit bumpy but that'll be fixed later.

see the bump I'll fix that when I go back down EDIT: needs more banking too.

still maybe a little stretched but I'm not sure.

looks like it gets too steep and doesn't turn enough.

I think it looks pretty awesome. It almost looks like yours could be a little bit steeper, but thats pretty minor. I think you have the banking pretty close, I think the banking could also use a little bit more towards the top.

Looking very nice though, good work.

I'm thinkin' the pullout is too big because the loop will use the same one and it might hit 90 at 4 ft. I could be wrong. i also think that the drop needs to be wider I don't have view that shows it well tho.

I was just looking at the pic of your preview (?) update, and i think that the pullout is fine. Just look at the 3rd pic of your earlier update. (sorry for this bad written respond)
But so far so good ;) hope to see more soon.

The drop isn't 180*, it should actually be 135*. It has to be 135* if you want the zero-G to fit over the station.

Also, this picture might help with shaping the pullout: http://www.flickr.co...oox/3776250790/
