That same guy made an amazing recreation of Kingda Ka. You can see the hill of it in the first pic.

Do you have a link to those pictures of the KK recreation?

he is good... i kinda wanna pay him to make me one!

What do you think he made those out of?

It looks a lot like a Coaster Dynamix set. But the Coaster Dynamix sets are B&M inverts. Maybe he got some Intamin track from that company.

It is CoasterDynamixs. He simply added rails to both sides of the spine to create the Intamin box track look. If you visit the CoasterDynamix's website he details the construction of the Maverick model in the forums.

It almost appears that he used two sets of the track, back to back to create the box track. The track is not consistant throughout the entire course.. some areas it is an Intamin-esque box track, and in other areas it's clearly B&M.

edit: ^^ Beat me to it.

^ You can clearly see what you mean in the 2nd pic in the blog.

I wonder if it's the same guy that did the CoasterDynamix Raptor recreation...

It is, he was talking about it in the CoasterDynamix forums.

Ride or Die, if you look through the CoasterDynamix forums, you'll find the topic about his Kingda Copycat....err I mean Ka(sorry, couldnt resist ;)).
Joking aside, his models are simply amazing.

Looks like that guy is going to have to remove that heartline roll from his re-creation :(..and yeah thats amazing.
