I love building and designing all sorts of things, whether its woodworking, 3D printing, or building K'nex roller coasters, I'm doing it!
What Inspired You to Make This?
I have been building roller coasters for years and more recently I got a 3D printer, and decided to design new, faster roller coaster cars. I wanted to make my coaster fully automated, so I used an Arduino and some servos to control the chain lift, station gates, etc. I'm always trying to improve my projects and this one was no exception.
