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.

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!

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

is there such a really ride like that

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.
