I haven't hit the Firecracker yet but its built so nice it should be sick. Are you from around trollhaugen by any chance? For how long it took me to build them well I built all of the double barrels besides the firecracker last year and they were not that hard to make but for all of the tubes I made this year the Donkey Dick and Firecracker took probably took 2-4 hours each. Then the cannons were pretty fast to build after I had the design. The 2 8ft tube sections I timed the second one and it was 25 minutes and that's the most stable cheap rail I have I think. Then the 6 inch tubes were pretty fast to build also.

Is the firecracker sloped downwards? That's interesting, Troll's isn't like that is it? That is a fun rail

The middle of the rail is kind of sagging because it was hard to make it not sag when building it but for the most part no it is not slopped downward it just has really short drops and a couple more drops than trolls so it might look that way.
