I've built the cardboard TOMI model using pennies for spacers. I don't
think the copper adds anything other than space and they only cost a
penny a piece! I thought about threading copper tubing through the
magnets to hold them in place but what I'm really having trouble with
is building the track for the roller to run on. My attempts, so far, are very
misshapen. I just want a circular track that goes up and down similar
to the cardboard model. Currently, I'm using copper tubing for the
track and some rollers from a sliding glass door that fit around the
copper tubing like the wheels/rollers on a modern roller coaster.
My next attempt will be to build it in sections like a model railroad
but I'm going to need some good tube bending tools and some
jigs to aid in the process.

Bye,
Paul
