K1ngdaKa88 Posted June 21, 2015 Author Share Posted June 21, 2015 Thanks Looks awesome! Are you able to paint the supports white? I could do it, but I don't! Why? Because it is a lot of work to paint all these pieces! I also want to use them for other K'nex coasters where I don't want white supports. What about the order of the cars because of the colors?

Because it is a lot of work to paint all these pieces! I also want to use them for other K'nex coasters where I don't want white supports. Also, with K'nex, each colour is a size, so you know that a red one is a certain length. It really makes building a lot easier than if they were all the same colour.

K1ngdaKa88 Posted June 26, 2015 Author Share Posted June 26, 2015 Great News! The new Sets arrived today! I continued building and I've put the cars together! I just had a bit of time this evening, so here is a photo of the Sets and a short Video! The new pieces! trim.B841133B-DDFA-4F2E-A8A6-34B7C941048B.MOV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K1ngdaKa88 Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 Construction Update: I'm finished with the stall and roll! I also changed the blue high 5 a bit, with curved track. If everything works well, I'll probably be finish this evening or tomorrow! The boosters are working really well! Both cars can go after the roll! So I now only have to do the turn around and probably a little "station". Here are some photos: Stall finished Near miss while leaving the roll! new blue high 5 the roll is also finished Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K1ngdaKa88 Posted July 7, 2015 Author Share Posted July 7, 2015 New Update: The Layout is complete! The problem is, the car looses to much speed that it isn't able to go around the last turn on the green side! But I'll look that I can fix this problem.

K1ngdaKa88 Posted July 8, 2015 Author Share Posted July 8, 2015 Wooohooo! It works!! Here is a short Video: trim.605C951B-0D8A-4D24-B75C-B89C15C18507.MOV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoinItForTheFame Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Looks good!!! Quick question: How did you get the cars connected together to form the train?? I have a few k'Nex sets, and each came with one car (and there is space under the cars to add a connector to connect more than one car together,) but no connector to connect two or more cars together to make a train.

K1ngdaKa88 Posted July 9, 2015 Author Share Posted July 9, 2015 Well, I made it like the Boy in this Video: [youtu_be] [/youtu_be] Bad News!! The Video won't come until August! That's because the coaster didn't wanted to work, when I got up this morning and Tomorrow I'm going on a vacation! So today I don't have anymore time to fix that problem! Sorry!

K1ngdaKa88 Posted August 4, 2015 Author Share Posted August 4, 2015 Today I've moved the coaster from my room back into the dining room and connected everything and it worked!! Hopefully it will work when I want to film it for the YouTube Video! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K1ngdaKa88 Posted September 7, 2015 Author Share Posted September 7, 2015 Sad News: K'nex Twisted Colossus is now History! Sep 06.15. R.I.P. K'nex Twisted Colossus I removed it yesterday, because I'm cleaning up my bedroom and needed the space. I'll also soon get a new bed. Anyway I would have demolished it, to build something new. If you have any ideas of what building new there, you can tell it me! You saw how many pieces are used on K'nex Twisted Colossus. And about the track, only half of all the track pieces I used for TC! I have 3 Chain Lift motors and two Booster. Any ideas are welcome. Now a few deconstruction pictures: The tracks of the High-5 is gone And now all pieces of track It looks so different without track And two the big structures, but now, nothing is left than pieces.

ECZenith Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 I think you should do Wicked Cyclone next, more compact and a great layout to model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K1ngdaKa88 Posted September 8, 2015 Author Share Posted September 8, 2015 I think you should do Wicked Cyclone next, more compact and a great layout to model. I'll look, maybe I'll build SFDK's Joker! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GCI Wooden Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Lightning Rod would be awesome with the boosters, but it would take up so much space! Suggestions (Some more likely/possible than others) Lightning Racer Mean Streak NTAG Joker Iron Rattl... You know what, any RMC. Cyclone - Coney Island Also, a GCI like Kentucky Rumbler would be awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyclone - Coney Island Also, a GCI like Kentucky Rumbler would be awesome! Thanks for your suggestions. I think I won't make lightning rod. First because of the space and 2nd because it is a terrain coaster and I don't have that terrain so it would need more structure than I have pieces for. What I also was thinking about is that I could build a thrill ride. Your coaster ideas are great too! I will decide it when I get my new bed, so I have a bit more space to build one. So the new bed should come in October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
