Micro Machines downhill

Jezter Sunday, 6/23/2024

Hi everybody! Just a warning my skills at conversing my thoughts are a little bit of a mess, but I promise it makes sense to my scrambled mind.

Anyway, been working on a new design for my downhill Micro Machines track and boy is it causing me to keep second guessing myself and the design in general. My biggest hurdle currently is getting these silly tiny things to take the turns without looking absolutely ridiculous or trying to imitate superman!

In my original design I used the crash racers set, but it was just to big and they always slide down to the bottom lane making things dull. I'm going to attempt to create a similar shape out of good ol coroplast as the cars roll very satisfyingly on that material. Not to mention I have no real budget outside of the materials I already have on hand at this current time, so trying to 3d print some curves is off the table for now. I do have some foam board that I might try out, but for some reason my mind is struggling with making these curves work no matter what material I am trying.

I won't give up, as I truly want to make this track work so I can create new videos for not only my entertainment, but also for my little YouTube channel.

Thank you all for taking the time to read my rambling, just had to kinda voice my struggles to help clear my mind. And thank you to all you wonderful people for keeping me and others inspired to build our own little track!
