Toothpick San Francisco Answered

Artist Scott Weaver has built a model of San Francisco with a twist: it is made entirely out of toothpicks and glue. He estimates he used 100,000 toothpicks on the model, which includes a track on which ping-pong balls can roll down and 'visit' the city.

Surprisingly, Instructables HQ does not seem to be included--must have been an oversight.
