Quoted from mystman12:
I'm curious about how hard it is to maintain, or if anything like glue was used to hold everything together. I built a big K'nex rollercoaster as a kid once, and it worked flawlessly at first, but after a short period of time it started to experience issues as all the pieces started to shift and come apart.

Good one! Same here!

That sucker weighs over 70 pounds! 16,000+ pieces. NO ARDUINO! No glue!
Such an impressive feat!
