Yessir, that's a woodie. With red rods. Eat it.
And if you're annoyed that I didn't post this one here so you could perfect it (trust me you'd have a heck of a lot to perfect) then I can understand. I just really felt the need to disregard the 'smoothness' thing and just build to build so I could see how it would turn out-- and my next coaster, by the way, will be posted on here for you because I do still care about you. That aside, enjoy the coaster. If you can. Because it's a woodie with red rods and some people probably can't recover from that. ~Pictures~....
Owait, un momentito. About the chain, you'll see it doesn't extend to the crest. Why? The chain was too short so I threw a back chain dog on and it worked fine. Now for pictures...
You notice interesting lift angle jah?? You like, jah??? Not sure of the degree though, somewhere steeper than 27 and less than 45...
Here you can see how I cleverly interlocked two subtle radii turns....
Here you can see airtime...
Here you can see a turn so low it causes stomach-crushing airtime and rib-smashing g's....
And here you can see what was probably the most enjoyable coaster I've built.
But the show doesn't stop here folks. There is.....a final vid!! My first. Which got about 55% of the quality stripped off it when I uploaded it to Youtube. Oh well, give me sympathy points for....ah....nothing.
See how I embedded that? I'm the envy of noobs...

Not a huge fan of the layout but hey I know what you mean it's lots of fun to throw something together in a day or two without criticism from ssc.

I think you should add more banking to the turnaround after the drop, and the one over the lift. Other than that its a pretty nice Woodie.

Not bad. It would look lazy, since there is literally no banking, but it looks like you had fun.
