I know its a Saturday,b ut i have nothing to do. So after riding Trackwalkers excellent recreation of Shooting Star, I got into classic woodie. So i saved and closed my two intamins and started working on a little recreationish coaster of Riversides Thunderbolt(RIverside is now SFNE) I was suprised how good the first drop came out, so i figured why not post a pic...look here!

Looks good, I've never seen the real ride, so I can't say how close you are to the real one.

and here is that double down i was talking about. When i rode this coaster a few weekends ago i didnt get any airtime on it, so i didnt put any one the coaster im building. It reaches exactly 0.0(from the front seat). The first dip of the double down also goes right above the edge of the station roof in real life so i made that height on my coaster aswell. Theres also a pic of the layout so far!

Please take the time to do custom supports. Shouldnt be too hard since its a smaller coaster.


BTW ive had WAY more than 6 projects at one time. Ive cut way down due to my time being cut in half (since Im working 6 day weeks now) but right now I have...8 projects. Only 4 of which people know about.

people now know 3 out of 3 for me...I dont know how to do custom supports for the woodies, but the only place on this coaster that has wide supports is on the turn at the top.

Here are some more screens of the bunny hop across the middle and the "turning dip"

I also think it would be cool to do the 3 3d's for this coaster. One is the ramp coming down from the station and 3 switchbacks at the bottom. Two is the 6 flags that go along the top of the two turns. Three(and the hardest) is the Thunderbolt sign. If anyone would have any interest in doing so will be rewarded with points! (based on the job you do ofcourse)
By myself i want to build the roof alot of classic woodies had over the brakes. Eventually i may need some help with a little bit of track smoothing, but its pretty decent now. Theres only one area that needs some help, which is the hill to turn transition after the double dip

hope you like- jakiZle

I have at least 8 things I could finish if I'm bored, but because I can only make outstanding rides when I'm realy inspitred ,half of the rides will never finish
