Looks great 😊

[@theknexpert]

Thank you! I tried using only yellow tube supports for aesthetics.

[@jonathanberendsen4292]

Those are some very cool looking supports! A nice type of supports if you have a lot of yellow rods, they look very clean!

[@theknexpert]

Thank you! I invented these tube supports myself. I love the yellow color scheme.

[@beyondverticalthrills]

This is really cool, I use practically the exact same supports but with micro knex so it’s really flimsy 😂 Edit: If you want your coaster layouts to be longer and have taller elements, try using fan powered trains

[@theknexpert]

Thanks! I've only ever built with classic size K'nex pieces even though I have a bunch of micro since they hurt my fingers less lol. I don't have the Web Weaver fan car yet, but I wouldn't use it anyways as it makes coasters run too unrealistic.

[@coastersnsuch]

So happy to see you finally using tube supports

[@theknexpert]

Thanks! I've made a couple roller coasters using tube supports before, but not this style.

Yo i love the videos you make recently ive been trying to make a lounch like yours but dont know how to make it automatic could u make a video where u show a few ways?

[@theknexpert]

If you watch my Vortex or Donkey Kong Coaster videos you can see how the launch works a bit better. TBH the launches don't work that well and were a huge pain to troubleshoot (multiple tries for each take). I recommend just doing a rubber band manual launch instead.

intresting way of showing the build without taking 20,000 clips/photos 😂 . nice build, I cant help but notice you losing a lot of speed fromt he last 3 chain dogs clicking on the first drop. and do you weigh down the cars at all? also have you tohught about custom bearing cars, there desins out for micro cars now

[@theknexpert]

Yeah, this one was way easier to film haha. I only weighed the last three cars since the motors didn't have enough power to carry all five.

Hi! Im a big fan and im getting knex to build coasters with in a week, do you have any tips before i start?

[@theknexpert]

Definitely try weighing your cars to improve speed, it really does make a big difference. I have a tutorial video on my channel on how to do it with micro cars. Looking forward to see what you create!
