". I live two and half hours from the Point, and I am 16. Now why would you guys know each other, if you live far away and are different ages?"
...because I lived in Canton, MI until three months ago and he was a friend-of-a-friend at the point I met him. Plus what does age have to do with anything?

B-Town: Shot down.
I have read all of these comments and I myself still can't tell whether you guys are just joking or are serious. Do you really have to torture all of our "not in the know" souls?!?!?!

I'll come right out and say it for them:
They are telling the truth; shorty has some blue prints.
Yes, he does. I have seen them. You know I don't BS about stuff like that.

Is there anyway I can get a copy of the blueprints??
What type of print's are these? There are several kinds.
The kind most people are familar with is the the type that has a blue background and line's and marks that appear white.
There is another kind that I used that used a special photo-paper that you ran through a machine. If they did it right, it will have a light blue background with dark Blue lines. (this machine makes your head spin from ammonium)
Now a day's, there is a standard kind with differnt color lines on white paper. I am guessing Intamin did not hand draw the original's on Vellum, so they may have used this. If that's the case, all you need is A Kinko's s around and you could make some serious dough :)

Yeah if it wasn't for those pesky international copyrights that I'm SURE are applied to said drawings.

Shorty's absence makes me think this to be a joke more and more......
But who knows, maybe he really does, I've got to stay open to that option too. Especially since Jeff doesn't BS about things like this.

Has anybody got the bright idea of e-mailing him directly so he's aware that we're talking about him? :)

OK... would I know this if he didn't really have plans?
The footers of the tallest towers are 56'x56', except the footer for the tallest footer because supports F10 and F11 for the turn toward the tunnel are on the same footer as the tower. There are 5.67' between the tower footers. The footers for the towers with the non-flared bases are 39'x39'.
Do you think I'm making that up?

I am starting to believe you guys. Jeff almost everyone knows the dementions of those larger footers, but what made me start to believe you, was the dementions of those smaller footers, and the F10 and F11 supports.
What do these blueprints show? Are they for the footers, supports, lift, station, ect.
WHOA. I don't know where to start. I have blueprints, if you dont want to believe me, I dont care. Yes, Jeff, Jeffrey spartan, Scott, and Dan have seen them. I will hook my scanner up soon and scan a small portion. Scott is right, I came across them by pure luck. I did not get them from anybody at Cedar Point and I did not steal them. I have no intention of putting them online for the fact that I have no idea if Cedar Point would approve of that. I dont think they want all of us building MF's in our backyards now do they? I apologize that it took so long for me to respond. I am a senior in high school, i work about 40hrs a week and I have a girlfriend. I am very busy, but I always find the time to atleast read GTTP. The best way to get a quick response is to email me, thanks matt for getting my attention.
no problemo, a small portiion would be nice, seeing as how I myself have actually never seen blueprints for anything, ones for MF would be kind o neat!!:)
OK, I scanned a small portion. If you want to see it email me, shortyx517@aol.com Its nothing spectacular because I dont want to show much of them. Its just a little piece. please email me directly and not post here because I dont get to read this everyday.
thanks steve
