this is my first CD coaster I am doing with sscoasters.net.
the lift is 3 ft 0.22 inches tall and the loop is 2ft and 5.13 inches tall from the base.
I think that it looks great now, but it doesnt make the loop
Here are some pics:

If you have any idea how I can mod my train, please post it here!!

On the first pic there is a little bump after the bend but still heading downwards. Please fix that but apart from that it is looking really good.

The loop is lopsided and looks as though it is leaning. You should try to get it straight and maybe add some more support. Your drop support is nice though. I know how much of a pain it can be to shape these things perfect and get them to work but it's so worth it in the end. They look awesome.

^it took me 4 hours of pure working.
working on the supports in a few minutes
^^fixed

Sry for doublepost, but IT IS WORKING!!!!!!
Here is the video:
YouTube - CD coaster test 2

Next up is an unique dive loop and a zero g roll.
the dive loop will be like turning to the right and up about 30* then dive loop, so that the pullout will be 180* twisted from the loop pullout.

Looks good so far! Keep it up!

[lazor 22]

Yea, looks really good and is nicely shaped. I would defiantly not let the train stop like that though. These trains are very precise and can break easily. There are many small parts on them and you don't want to lose anything, especially in the wheel hub area.

^Dont worry, I used an over 1 foot long rubber band to brake the car.
It is defenetly smooth

^^Thanks!

Edit:
I have finished the dive loop and the zero g roll.
But I have almost no pices left
so I am now gonna take out some unused supports and give you an update in about half an hour

Edit II:

Here are pics and a test:




YouTube - DSCF0454.AVI

I have taken out a few supports that are not needed for the train to complete the circuit.

Comment please!

[kne` builder]

You make me sad guys

Well, I have an update.
After the zero g I built a 200* turn into a MCBR, drop, corcscrew.
the cork was hard work!
the cork has foot- or handchoppers 2 times!!!!
the train is traveling the MCBR with a rly nice speed.
enough talk, here are some pics:





vvclick for videovv

^^click for video^^
BTW:
I need some layout-ideas.
And dont want comments like "right turn, lift"
I want something creative.
so please comment!

Edit:
About the side view of the loop in the first pic:
the hanging tube is horizontaly.
It was just out of place

[lazor 22]

Woah dude, might want to fix that loop shape. Look at the first pic in your ^^ update. Looks pretty bad. The rest looks great though.

[Kevyn230]

I love how it flows so well. The loop needs to be shaped a little better, still looking a bit lopsided. The brake run was a cool touch too it and well. Yeah awesome!

[kne` builder]

^^I am still trying to make it better
^fixed in a few minutes

[BGTKing]

Is there double stacked track on the top of the first drop?

[Jogumpie]

Apart from that loop it's looking pretty awesome.

[kne` builder]

^^Yeah. the easiest way to save some speed
^Thanks!
