Finally I have the next construction update! Now we have the weird looking camelback and most of the spike. Then after that comes the car and the best part, decorating it!

If you want to know how to make one of these, or just want some tips, feel free to send me a PM.

Check back soon for another update!

  • Neighbors: yup, he's a pedophile.

  • @Aphrachu Me: Yup, I've blocked you.

  • Thats hard to believe that will hold over 100 lbs. The track must flex like crazy. I also used 2x2's to build one and they are spaced just 12" apart and the track still flexes with 70lbs including the cart. Thats with 1 1/2" conduit. What is the pvc size you used? You said 3/4" but from the video it looks to be a larger diameter. I don't get any sway from the cart, perhaps your side wheels are too far apart from the track? cahans.com/projects/Rollercoas­ter/

  • @mcahan02 it's weaker in some spots than others. and it is definitely 3/4 inch PVC pipe. yeah I don't know. it works!

  • I think you better not put more than 25 lbs on that track, it looks really thin.

  • @mcahan02 actually the track is really strong. I weigh like 100 something pounds and it holds. the problem is the 2x2's. they are pretty fragile and one just broke. but that's also cause the car isn't done yet and it doesn't have upstop wheels so it shakes around like crazy. but once it's done it'll support a lot of weight.

see all
