The Return of the K’Nuter (K’Nex Computer)

Holy schweeet mother of hi-technicaaaaaal!
Have any of you nerrs ever heard the legend of the K’nuter? Some guy was working on creating a functional 8-bit computer using only K’Nex back in 2011, but he was cut short due to the scale and costs of his plans (to the tune of 15,000 K’Nex motors).

Fourteen years later, a new K’nuter has entered the scene with a working 8-bit ALU and program/data storage soon to come! Check it out!
