Not for this model at this time. I’m going to display it at the train museum in an outdoor location. So I cannot use the ball bearings (or else they rust). I also want to make sure the trains can still make it in the 100 F heat over the summer.
@@CubeforFun The Serpent did/still does have those same issues. That’s why I’m being way more conservative with this one. Actually planning on investing in some ceramic bearings so The Serpent can run more reliably without rusting.
@@CoasterWriter idk if you would want to spent the money, but the full ceramic bearings I have are very tough. no rust no dmage to heat in the sun. worth looking into. I could send you a link to them on insta if you want
Looks great, what a fun concept!
Looking good :)
This is looking super good! I used the advice you gave me last video and my recreation is doing rlly good! Thank you!
You're welcome! Good luck on the Wildcat's Revenge model!
@@CoasterWriter Thanks!
Super nice! Keep up the content please
It looks like the trains are losing speed really fast
What sets do you use to build your coasters? I'm looking to get into building some myself.
This coaster has track from the Rippin Rocket sets and the Storm Mountain sets, with cars from the Screamin Serpent set.
@@CoasterWriter thanks. 👍
Do you lube your train wheels? They seem to lose a lot of speed.

@@CoasterWriter I find it quite bizarre that The Serpent, that was exhibited in the same conditions, did not seem to possess issues of that sort.
