The function of that part is to keep one student occupied playing with it during the entire build season. It doesn't have to be the same student all the time, they can take turns. - MrForbes [more]

It will be anodized if wanted, upon request. We have some plans to open a team 1323 store and we have been talking to first about it. Just keep an eye open =).
