Hello guys, after finishing my recent woodie, I've decided to make another intamin, what else. Yes it's called Bacon (for lack of a better name)

All i have is the drop now, more to come!

edit: For the record, this is not the drop that Flicksta made, this is my own creation.

Looks pretty nice Jer. Also, I'm not saying the drop looks bad, but can we please just see a side shot to verify it is good?

basically yes but for the sake of not upsetting jer we'll agree with him and say its a bacon roll haha. is this handbuilt or newton? also not to be harsh but your immelman seems just a tad bit too round at the top.

the shaping is -slightly- different from a cuban eight, and the ride is handbuilt.

I`m hungry.
but aside that,could please change the color from steel/grey to the red that you used for the rest of the track,it does look like the coaster is inverted,pretty akward.
All RCCAs should be RMC'd. And that event shall be henceforth known as the Rollercaust.

4 rashers of bacon,
2 slices of black pudding,
brown sauce,
the one side of the bread was fried,
the other side was spread with butter.


P.S. This isn't off topic, seeing as the topic title is "Bacon"... [lol]

those corkscrews look kinda bad, as in not smooth and likely to deliver alot of horrible lats on the entrance and exit. i'm assuming this is handbuilt because all your rides are. you should really consider newton my friend. smoothness always seems to be an issue with your rides.

I never used tools, and I never will, as you may be aware it's a work in progress, and I like to take these screens as soon as I finish. I can assure you the corkscrews are safe, no intense lat spikes.

I'm trying to replicate Fahrenheits snappy and powerful corkscrews actually

Added trains, finished the layout, now the ride needs not only a crap load of smoothing and re-shaping, but it needs a lot of technical work too, hopefully I wont need to trim the drop but it's pulling a -2 spike back row.

It's a bit of a mission to get from the 1st brake to the station.
