All the wheels are done and they have the bearings and axles in them. I am putting them onto the frame today!

 

Here's another shot with the upstop wheels on. I will soon have the guide wheels on too! They were just finished last night. Then I can assemble the track and take the tires off that you see on the left.

 

I used cardboard mockups to get an idea how the sides would look and if I wanted to change them at all. The seats have foam on them and I am about to primer them today also.

This is the view looking from behind the coaster at the hand bars and decoration I am putting on.

 

This is how the seats are attached to the sides of the coaster. This will be hidden by wood in the end.

 

This is the inside of the seats. It's framed in like cabinets and bolted down securely.

 

This is the back of the coaster with more decoration. The plate on the left is finished and the plate on the right is still being painted. The coaster will also have stripes stained all over the wood.
