KrazyT Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 This project will be kind of new ground for me, as it is something I haven't attempted before. I wont go into details yet. Here are a few construction shots. Let the discussion begin
Eric_Smith Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 That drop looks like it has some major airtime!
KrazyT Posted April 29, 2009 Author Posted April 29, 2009 ^ Thanks, you can bet there will be airtime on that drop Anyway, I have a small update showing off some new construction. Enjoy.
coastb2 Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 Why is there old, not connected catwalks inside the structure below the crest?
dr.gumbo Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 ^ He hasn't put the track there yet (he's doing the thread real-lift-construction-style).
coastb2 Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 It looks like there is not enough room for the bottom of the in the structure drop. Plus he covered where the exit of that drop will come out with outer bracing.
dr.gumbo Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 ^ I think he know's what he's doing. EDIT: And no, he didn't cover up the track route, you can see that there's no supports in the way if you look closely.
coastb2 Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 I cant wait to see the purposed final layout! It will be so good.
KrazyT Posted May 2, 2009 Author Posted May 2, 2009 Why is there old, not connected catwalks inside the structure below the crest? Just wait until you see what they do. At this point, you will find out soon. You will like it, thats all you need to know for now...
coastb2 Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 I can't decide if Freddie or KrazyT is a better custom supporter. They both know how to make supports amazingly good.
coastb2 Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 It makes my child coaster look like nothing at all. Green Coaster-090502103246000.bmp
KrazyT Posted May 2, 2009 Author Posted May 2, 2009 ^ Do you really need to compare them. I agree, there is no need to compare anyone. In other news, I will have an update coming soon.
jarmor Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 a shame I cant see that linked site from work... even more a shame TPR went thru all the trouble to make this site large to handle uploads and no one seems to wanna post over here.
DBru Posted May 4, 2009 Posted May 4, 2009 That's cool---they look great! I hope construction picks up its pace a bit, though.
KrazyT Posted May 4, 2009 Author Posted May 4, 2009 ^Only time will tell.... And how well the workers are getting paid....
rollerboy Posted May 4, 2009 Posted May 4, 2009 Wow. I haven't seen custom supporting on a woodie before. On NL I mean. Looking good. Keep it up!
haux Posted May 4, 2009 Posted May 4, 2009 Are you custom supporting the entire thing? If so, why? I understand custom supporting crossovers and -unders and lateral areas. I do the same to make my coasters more accurate.
KrazyT Posted May 4, 2009 Author Posted May 4, 2009 Because I hate the auto-supporter. They dont look very realistic. EDIT: Here's a sample of my work without the auto-supporter. Outburst.nlpack Outburst
KrazyT Posted May 5, 2009 Author Posted May 5, 2009 ^ Im keeping that to myself until the ride is released.
