Hi. I'm looking for ideas on how to make the frame for the UCS Imperial Star
Destroyer stronger. I've tried some things already but it still flimsy and
has fallen apart on me. Short of supergluing pieces together, anyone have any
ideas? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks so much!

The frame is initially flimsy, but once the panels are all on it does improve
somewhat. It's not Venator solid, but it's not too bad.

What parts are falling apart? Do you have photos, so we can give possible suggestions?

the engines shake, and a lot of the outside panelings just don't stay put.
I have some extra pieces I might use for it to stick better. Let me know try
something out and I'll report back. Thanks for your help.
