Should be an asterisk here... you can see Pelee Island, but not mainland Canada from any of the high points at CP.

So, I'm working on a design project, and to get myself used to using Inventor again, I set out to model some B&M track. Some things to note: I didn't put all the chain in, nor did I leave room for it to actually feed into the lift, some of the welds are too close to the bolt holes, there aren't any shear supports (supports going out from the track instead of down), and I didn't put much thought into the footers. Dimensions are guesstimates off of pictures, but certainly aren't too unrealistic. This is basically for fun, and I doubt I'll actually lay out and model the ride for a long time, seeing as I'm working on a lot of other stuff at the moment. On my website (see the sig) you can see more of what I am doing, and with that project I will likely model track more to the tune of a Euro-fighter/mouse style track: two rails with ties. My plan is to write some programs that will layout and model a simple coaster like a mouse. But in the meantime, enjoy these: Representing the station the lift close-up on lead-in and chain. Notice no ARB steel, but room for it. X-Z Profile. 30 degree incline, approx. 125ft tall

Ah. Thanks. Didn't know I had to turn it on.

No problem. This is supposed to be in my sig, but here's a link to my personal website: Link. It'll give you a little more info about what I'm all about. Got it.

I'd be interested in judging. I know I haven't posted much, but I frequent the site a lot. I think I'd make an excellent judge because I'm a mechanical engineering student. I'm from the Ohio State Theme Park Engineering Group, and right now I'm the intern at Great Coasters. I've also used NoLimits, including some of the 3rd party add-ons like elementary. I know a lot about coaster physics, and would definitely be able to judge accurately on the 'realism' of the models. Let me know what you think!

Hey guys, just updated the site. Check it out here.
