- NOTE: These are videos of model roller coasters that are built as a hobby. They are not for sale. There are no instructional videos. This model was built using .030 thick Styrene plastic for the track, aluminum tubing for the track support spine and wooden dowels for the structure. Train bodies were made using Coaster Dynamix Statix Intamin trains with modified HO scale wheels.
Constrictor was built in June, 2013.It's a very compact model fitting on a 2 X 4 foot base.

And coming from you, that means a lot to me! I wanted to give this coaster something I hadn't really tried before. I'm glad folks are noticing. : ) My vision was a mini-Mega Lite with a touch of Schwarzkopf. (and it's good to hear from you jawharp!)
That helix is pretty damn wicked!
They give credit to Kevin MacLeod who did write this song and has put it up for download for folks to use for a very reasonable rate on his website. So yes it is the same song, but we both got it from the same place. : ) I had never head of them til now, they're pretty funny.
It more than likely would, however the forces may be too much for the human body to handle, the Constrictor would more than likely cause you to black out and or worse. This layout could be built in real life, with adjustments to the dimensions.
I would have preferred a more diverse set of elements but that might be a little hard given the available size to work with. That helix at the end looks like a proper finale. Sadly, I'm not sure it would be possible to build a model of Superman 64 (that's an extremely compact inverted coaster I made on No Limits themed to a terrible video game).
you should make a schwarzkopf doppel looping
This song is from JesseandMike's Swag Video
is the amount of friction on the models close to the amount on actual ones?
There's just no pleasing you : ).
If I were to take a coaster I built in a model and build it in real life, would it work?
I would venture to say no. We're dealing with different weights and wheel systems.
Funny you should say that....
