$59.99, but if you at the size it seems pretty darn cool!

Easy buy. 

2’ long according to the park. Dang. 

Sure wish there was a pre-built option. I don't have the patience for the really small ones, much less a 2' model. 

How about a Home Depot builder add-on?

My issue is the removal of the pieces from the metal plates.  The instructions tell you to just use a pair of nail clippers.  Yeah right.  How the heck do you get those in the slots to cut the tabs?  I’ve also tried x-acto knives, wiggling the pieces back and forth, using wire snips etc.  It’s still hard as heck to get the pieces separated.  I get aggravated because by the time I get them off I’ve distorted or bent them in some way.

Ship it to me and I'll build it for $40 bucks!

Maybe the park could utilize slow periods in the gift shops…and instead of the old “Leaning Time Is Cleaning Time” signs, they could switch it to “Nano Coaster Building Time”!

Not as much as I hate the cheap Chinese made crap that my wife buys on Amazon that I have to assemble.

Sad part is, I’ve actually paid someone to build the coaster cutout for me.

Use these, when I was in the field this is what I used (and still use in my personal electronic hobbies) to cut the 22AWG wires in a twisted pair cable after terminating it in a phone or server board.  They are appropriately called flush cuts.  https://www.amazon.com/Cutter-Lightweight-Klein-Tools-D275-5/dp/B000GTMZHG/ref=asc_df_B000GTMZHG/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=312003160272&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=7674252148202395304&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9016578&hvtargid=pla-383611725565&psc=1

THAT would make me want to work for the park, as a full time model builder.
