Here is my 1st wooden-style knex coaster. This is the second knex coaster I've built, the 1st being the actual ss kit.

Type: Sit-Down

Height: ~4'

Inversions: 0

Train: 4 cars, weighted

Ride Time: ~ 12 seconds from end of lift chain




The vid is not very high quality; there is no 360, 480, 720 P option, and sorry, no POV.

You know... I really liked that. It's one of those coasters that I really like seeing cause it's a clear sign of another quality builder coming onto the site. Keep up the good work, I like what I see.

Thank you chubs33, I appreciate the complement. I hope my new project comes out as good...I'm working on a big looper using tubes and RR motors. I'll be posting it on construction soon. Thanks guys for posting it on the new thread under videos, i forgot to.

I wouldn't recommend using RR boosters, not many (if any) people here like them. I would suggest using a drill launch or even rubber bands.

Ya it's just that I'm trying to make it a really long run, and I know that the train won't make it all the way without 'em. It's not for a launch, they would be half way thru the ride. I know it's like cheating, but I just wanna try them out.
