I was bored the last few days so i started of at an S&s Screaming squirl design. Since a real Screaming squirl has technical different stuff then any other coaster. It was still tricky to build it.

Some real S&S coaster facts:
- It's trimmed on all drops with a special brake system so there can be braked on curves.
- The track is only made for going straith forward, if it need to turn around a different track is used.
- The car is higher above the rail so it can make sharper movements
- the car has a set of 4 wheels in the middle of the car. So it can make quick dives over the edge.

The Elements on my coaster:
- 3 fun over the edge drops
- Upside down dip
- terror drop (4.5g)

I'd say take a look at the screen and drop off some comments:

I've seen pictures of those before, but I've never been on one.

It actually looks really fun, especially that "terror drop" part. The supports look really nice. My only complaint is the trains. I know you can't do anything about them, but some people won't like the hangtime with lapbars.[;)]

In real there are also lapbars but also Shoulderbars, Just imagine some shoulderbars on the trains.

Also i'm currently rebuilding those rails for it, since the real cars can't go though turns they need a different rail.
Here can you see it:

Lookin good Dirk. My only thing is that the last drop thing could be a little more circular, but I think that is the angle of the screenshot.

You should add more bracing on the far right of the picture, perhaps a pair of beams that interesect it at a perpendicular angle?

Train colours have been changed and i've got a name: Rustyfied

Jimmy: Yeah, It's just the angle you are looking at.

Brtn: I don't really understand what you mean. If you mean that the base supports were diagonal, then it's just because i've kinda recreated the style of S&S screaming squirrel supports. It will hold.

Anyway, i'm currently busy with making the screenshot and then i'll upload it. Meanwhile a few more screens for you all:

Image
Just to show how circulair the last drop is [;)]

Image
The terror drop [:)]

Image
Going over the first "Saxophone" how it's called [;)]

Image
The little upside down dip [:)]


Anyway, look out for the ride soon on the exchange [:)]
