How do KNEX designers build the big display models?
Very carefully and WITHOUT glue! All display models have an internal support structure, made entirely of cubes built with blue Rods and Connectors. The support, or K’NEX cubes, prevent the display models from crumbling as they get bigger. The skin, or outer layer of the display, is made up of unique combinations of K’NEX parts. They’re what give the cubes the final shape and look needed to create reality with the structure. Need more help?
