CoasterComet Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 There's a how-down ready to happen here. The Jawas are losing control and there is a massive spat between the old and new Power Droids. Notice big daddy Jawa trying to take control in back. Draw all your own parallels (what's the correct term, euphemysem or something?) to what's going on in real coasterdom! Enjoy! This is my model (generic name 'Wildcat') coming along here in Chicago. I hope to get it done when I get out of rehab!
BRTeller Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 Ummm, coaster looks cool. But that post was just plain weird, good luck at rehab (If you were serious).
darklingscribe Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 Its hard to gage it's size. Star Wars figurines come in so many sizes that this model could be anywhere from 6ft to 6in. Do you intend this to be a working model?

Do you intend this to be a working model? He's using HO scale sticks, I have the same ones, they look identical. I may be a little off, but it's not six feet, probably a foot or two.
CoasterComet Posted March 31, 2008 Author Posted March 31, 2008 Didn't mean to creep everyone out! hehehe It's balsa wood, simple balsa wood. I took the pic just having fun with my phone camera. I'll take a better pic when I pick up my digital camera (in the shop now). Guess I'll hold back on the star wars guys this time The model is 1" = 6'. The space between ribbon boards (horizontal supports) is 1". Coming along slowly, it's been years since I started a model coaster project.
BRTeller Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 Sounds cool, and thank you I can make out what you are trying to say now. And I wasn't creeped out, how about that.
CoasterComet Posted April 2, 2008 Author Posted April 2, 2008 Ok, I made the star wars guys move back - they were creeped out that they creeped others out! Here's a little better picture. Would like to see other's projects as well! I hope to run it when it's done. It may not make the circuit on it's own, but at least it will roll down the hills
BRTeller Posted April 2, 2008 Posted April 2, 2008 Looking good! Hey if you want to look at my projects http://www.brandonscoasters.com/modelride1.htm thats my page with most of them. I still have a few to add though.
CoasterComet Posted April 2, 2008 Author Posted April 2, 2008 ^Wow! Looks like some great stuff! Any coasters?
