RCT3Bross Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 To connect the other half....? That's right, stupid from me, this thing is getting bigger than it already is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koasterking48 Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Cedar Point will hopefully put some signage up on the roof or something of the front gate I would assume Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aLFREd_25 Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I also did not expect it to be that tall. Even only half finished, it looks awesome. That's going to be a great photo-op standing at the front gates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrojack Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I wonder if they will have a big net to catch loose objects over the enterance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCT3Bross Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) Guys talking about the other half it's already standing up it's feet: Looking good. (I'm following this live, So expect some Updates along the way ) *Edit 3:21: Other half goes up in the sky! *Edit 3:25: Keyhole high enough to place! *Edit 3:26: Keyhole in place only needs to secure the element! Went fast. Edited January 29, 2013 by RCT3Bross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRHcoasterki Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 They are really speeding along! Looks great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zingoman Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I wonder if they will have a big net to catch loose objects over the enterance. I'm pretty sure a net won't be necessary since there will be a nice solid roof under the whole element that guests will be under. A net would seem redundant.

RCT3Bross Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Already on his place that's a nice looking element : It's less quality of the other because this is a screenshot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCT3Bross Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 ^ Not to ruin your party or anything, but look at your webcam time and mine last. It's already placed and they're securing it at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garbanian Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Just an FYI, seeing more and more CP is making me more and more excited. I'll be heading to CP most mondays of the season with a plat pass. If anyone is looking to tag along, let me know and we can work something out for going. I typically do full days there, open to close, or midday to close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koasterking48 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Me gusta mucho!!! Can't wait for the second to go up, and then the track! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_IntaMAN_ Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I can't wait to see how they will put the track through the keyhole! Certainly will be interesting to watch I'm so glad CP is on my list of out-of-state parks that I will visit this year. This beast just looks phenomenal.

christianscoasters Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 ^My guess is that they'll get all of the necessary ropes/attachments onto the track piece like normal, then they will "slide" it through the gap you see between the two pieces of the keyhole.

christianscoasters Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 ^I'm dying at those. Absolutely hilarious. I think what everyone fails to remember is that this picture doesn't say if the keyhole is completely constructed or not. For all we know, they could just be lining it up to put it into place. The picture is taken from kind of an awkward angle to answer that question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
