Pumpkin Carving

A Off-Topic forum to discuss things that aren't related to the Amusement Park Industry.

I was just about to begin carving a pumpkin for the first time in about 5 years, and I was wondering what all of your designs would be, or what you have done in the past? Also, does anyone have any good ways to carve a roller coaster into one?

What you could do is put like Raging Bull's first lift and drop then only carve out the supports and the track. Then in the non cut spaces, carve the name Raging Bull. Either way, i found that the best way to carve detailed things in a pumpkin would be to use a sharp tip of a steak knife to make the first cut through the skin, but use an exact-o knife to finish the job. Not that i have done that before 8)
