  • This is amazing! This guy owns his own truck trailer company, and built this roller coaster for his grandchildren.

      @@PaulGreggBYRChey man, you have the manual option to control comments and what audience the video is for. If you just leave it up to CZcams, they decide for themselves what videos are allowed to have comments and it’s really dumb because they’ll do it to any video regardless of what it is. So make sure you choose that this video is not for kids (kids can still see it), and don’t hold any comment for moderation. Some of your newer shorts are still showing this problem so hopefully this helps.

    Hey Paul,
    I've been watching your videos now for a looooong time since I was a child and now CZcams has put this one on my starting page. One day, I will also build a backyard roller coaster ☝🏻
    Oh my goodness! I had to watch it several times, to get it all. This is insane! Would love to ride and get in contact with the guy who build that. Could you get me into contact with him? That would be amazing! I'm building a dark ride in my attic and it would be marvelous to get to know somebody like-minded.
    All the best and keep up the great work

    Very impressive. I'm always curious thought what these things cost to build, the time as well as the money. Did he do this in a year? two years? a month? I like that he added stairs to the top of the chain lift in case of breakdowns. it's a nice professional touch.

    • @PaulGreggBYRC
      @PaulGreggBYRC  Před 2 lety +5

      I suspect the materials cost quite a bit, but he does the fabrication mostly himself. From talking to other BYRC builders, a small steel one will run $10K in materials. Not sure about the wood BYRCs, depends on the price of lumber. I made PVC BYRCs for children for under $1000 in materials, but it seems all materials have gone up quite a bit lately.

    The chainlift looks top notch for a backyard coaster but the supports on the rest of the ride do make me question if it's really that safe to ride with more than 1 person 😅 Especially the one at 0:45, is that even properly mounted? Definitely looks like a cool ride with elite airtime on the first drop, just minor concernes about the safety of the whole thing...

    • @PaulGreggBYRC
      @PaulGreggBYRC  Před 2 lety

      I see what you mean. Since we got the wheel resistance sorted, he's been stiffening the track, and maybe he has more to do. The track at 0:45 also seems overbanked, and could be flattened a little if no more speed can be achieved. He is so proficient at fabrication, he can change the track wheels or add a brake very quickly, like a couple days.
