Cedar Point Coaster Models

Last night I did a custom model with six inversions, and with about seven feet of track left it really went almost too fast through the last two inversions. You can do some fun things with the kit!

For the lights, (me being a good electrician) used color leds hooked up to 9 Volt batteries. It took me a while to make all the lights work, but I eventually got it.

Thats pretty cool, im just starting the long project, of making my TTD i am going to get the platform for the model & some of the dow rods for the supports maby as early as this week i could be getting started i'll keep everyone updated. This project should run about $100 & it will take awhile, Im not going to rush so.....

what would you use for track...im clueless, any suggestions

There are knex models of magnum and gemini on www.knexcoasters.com or something to that name. You should really check them out cauz there really cool.

Raptor Man there is also three top thrill dragster models on the k'nex site, ONE OF THEM IS 17' TALL, damn thats alot of K'Nex!!!!!!!!!!

This coaster that i found is really cool!!! The guy evan put lights on it so it would light up in the night!!!

I used hard molding clay for my Dragster. It's not that hard to use. All you have to do is cut it in a square form of you size choice and that was hard enough for me. The good thing about clay is that you can mold it in to any form you want.

yeah thats a good idea, i think ill do that, Thanks, & by the ways yours looks really good

Everyone reading this needs to take a good look at the detail to these next Coasters models, & really Appreciate the time this guys puts into his models.....

This is also cool, because they are working models

That TTD that was posted by Joe@cp04 is PERFECT. Even the support tower is the exact as the real one.

for real, I wish i could find some better pictures of it though

On the Rippin Rocket launcher, can you adjust the speed of the launch? How fast can it go?

I didnt know that, its all news to me, in fact today i took the 2 launchers off my Knex TTD So i can run The Screamin Serpent train with rubberbands, it really works PERFECT....& its more realistic with a longer train, so its all good...

email me for pictures of my Top Thrill & my unfinished Millennium Force...

I got my Up to date Pictures of my 5.5 foot Top Thrill Dragster, but i need another Screamin serpent to finish Millennium, i could have my pictures up next week, does anyone know how i could post them?
