cool, thanks danny, I'll have a look in the model shops in town tomorrow ^__^

Heres what I made today, had a sudden inspiration and changed it. Got one more bit to build, then its done. Final plan is:

brown bit is my circa box btw, not gonna build that obvs

The marble tile is smaller than they said it would be, and not all of the edges are rounded, I tried sanding it but it didn't work, so I can't really use it as a grind bit, gonna have to order another one soon.

looks AMAZING kerry cant wait to see how the flat bank with gap thing in middle turns out

LOOKIN SICK!! u taking to ukr3?

lmfao no, its attatched to a table thing, I'd need a van to take it to UKR3.
Anyone with a van wants to drive me, I'll bring it, haha XD

And thanks guys, should have the final bit made in the next few days ^___^

lol unfortunitly i dont have one

Just got more done today!
Changed the design again, haha.. I'm indecisive XD

I really like this though, made a mellow street section because the rest of the park seemed pretty big, thought I'd add some low stuff.


Mellow quarter and uber fun 2cm high grind blocks. The bit raised up that the quarter is on is 6mm high and is a fun mellow manny pad as well, soo many possibilities in this section!

As you can see, I also got the brick effect done, really happy with how it rurned out! Heres an overview of the whole park :


Thoughts? ^__^

Also.. At the end where the berlinwood sticker is, by the hubba, do I build a flatbank there, or leave it as is? I can't decide.. (it would stick over the edge of the park, so there would still be the same amount of space to land from the hubba)

Either way, gotta get one piece of thin dowel to make coping for the quarter so I can put a platform on the top of it, and also use the wood to make square coping for the hubba like I did on one side And need to wax up the coping/boxes. Then its done! Wellll stoked tbh, its turning out soo fun!

looks really sick kerry i wouldnt put a flatbank there, just leave it as it is

Thanks!

I'll wait to see what more people say on the flatbank/no flatbank question, then go with what most people think is best

hmmm, i think a flatbank would be good there, or even another quarter.

Hey This is looking great (Y).. Where did u get those brick things?

its just wood and cardboard (about 95% wood though) and then painted over with either brick colour or white paint, then when the brick colour paint is dried, brick lines drawn on with a white pencil.

sorry to double post just to BUMP but I would really love to know other peoples opinions on the park and moreso whether to build a flatbank or not to the end like described above

very nice this has inspired me to build my own. oh how did you get the quarter ramp to bend?

^___^
glad I inspired somebody! Its reet cheap as well, this has cost me just under £40 total, certainly beats the money you'd spend on brr stuff! : o
If you want any help, feel free to ask
some advice, always plan before you build. I recommend using google sketchup, its really easy to learn how to use, and you can make scale 3d drawings of park ideas you have to see what they'd be like, and then when you're satisfied with a design, start building it! or if you cant get on with it, send me a drawing you did on paper or something and if I'm not too busy I'll try knock up a 3d model for you, for some reason I find making 3d drawings of parks really fun ^__^

The quarter is cardboard, but, if you could find some cheap veneer that'd probably bend just as well, I just didn't want to spend loads on veneer for it.. Just spent 25p on an a4 bit of card, bends amazingly and is proper solid if you build the underneath properly

What do you think on my park to the flatbank or no flatbank issue? I want more peoples thoughts before I decide

what do you mean by the flat bank?

well, I just made some models to demonstrate my flatbank idea:
Heres the park as it stands, google sketchup style: (actual park atm is missing a few bits of coping compared to this, but, its 99% the same)

heres what I'm not sure whether to put in or not:



So, yea, thoughts everyone?

AND
Heres a little sticker job I did a few hours ago by combining two stickers, think it turned out really well!

I recomend you make the strait ledge longer and hell ya put the bank in.

Also you could add a straight rail across from the railing kinda like the loading dock from blackriver

I think it looks really nice! I wish I could have a park, at some point I'll make one

I think you should leave a quarter There you got plenty of banks in your park But it's looking really gooodddd

^ I don't think a quater would work with the landing from the hubba

about 70% sure on the bank now, more thoughts would be appreciated ^_^

so sick
