Inverted model roller coaster

[dcoaster88]

I love hear the magnetic brakes humming (if those are magnetic brakes idk but it sounds like them), its soo cool how they do that but excellent job though, i wish i could buy it.

[coasterb]

The model has been purchased. I think it may be down near Dansville, NY from what I was told but I am not 100% sure.

ahh im so sad they closed this store i loved going there ever since i was little:/

[tthrone7]

Can you please tell me how you bent the copper tubing and make the axles?

Thanks,

Taylor

that sucked that is nothing like the actual ride

[TeamApparition]

@FunAndOnly This isn't supposed to be a real ride... You know there are more amusement parks than just Cedar Point?

[LILCHRIS5X]

Cooooooooooool

[crossbones64]

the noise it makes is realistic! i love the 2-across trains ! great job!

[coastermaniac0]

This is awesome !

[honse246]

very cool!

[Coast3RDude]

Very nice model. Interesting lift hill design as well.

[alldat06]

Good job. You must be good at this stuff. It kind of reminds me of the Intamin inverts like at Kings Dominion, Volcano ride. Awesome!

[coasterb]

Thanks. I was actually going for a Intamin look. Looks like I was able to pull it off to the trained eye.

[ddrusa]

is there such a really ride like that

[coasterb]

This is not a model of any specific coaster. It does contain elements from many different rides though. The spiral lift is used on some real coasters today. All of the inversions can also be found on many coasters operating today.

Omfg. What did u/they use to make this! i wanna buy 1 :P

[coasterb]

It is a custom scratch built model. It is fabricated mostly from copper tubing. The cars are made from brass bar stock and the wheel assemblies are brass angle. I machine EVERYTHING. The model took 5 months to build. It is easily transportable. Once on site, assembly takes a little less than 2 hours.

[Deano999111]

Ooo so its not like you can buy sets thn :\

KK thanks! ;)

[nilloc5]

yo man were building a roller coaster model for school

if we pay you a blow job and a anal eating outage would you build it for us?

[CoasterFreak95]

what did you use for brakes?

[coasterb]

Brake is made from spring belt. There are magnets on the cars which attracted to the belt and create substanital friction.

[WickedTwister08]

Beautiful Coaster and very creative lift hil ;)

[coasterb]

Thanks. It is actually modeled after the lift hills used on some Zamperla coasters. If you have never seen one, they are cool to watch.

[VT340]

Where I can find pictures of the Model? Looks fine!

[coasterb]

Thanks for the comment. There are no pictures on line anywhere however. I am not big into pictures and did not really take any as I was building it. I may snap some off in the future though, as it is not located to far from me.

[gkelchner]

name it

[coasterb]

The owner calls it the "Super Looper". I believe a contest was held to choose the name.

[yiersansu18]

That is sooooooooooo amazing!!!!!!!

[popeye728]

that was amazing! kinda loud, but cool as hell

[DjBurningjay]

Nice Brakes and chains!!! especialy the loops and da cockscrews

[nycglitztap]

CCCOOOLLL!!!!:-)

[coasterb]

The wheels are Delrin tires pressed onto very small ball bearings. I had to machine each tire individually. It took some time, being as there are a total of 50 wheels.

[christophermarshall]

Great work.just wondering, what type of wheels are you using for your train? did you make them yourself or something?

Im making a wooden 0 gauge coaster and so far, I have two turn arounds, half a dip :) and a fully working lift hill with a knex chain. so far, everythings going to plan.

It is extreme work making working coasters from scratch, just glad yours works.

***** 5 stars of course. :D

[sawblade5]

That model kit sounds really like a real Beemer.

[brennakj]

Very nice job! It's longer than a lot of other models I've seen, plus the spiral lift and working brake run are really cool. Great work!
