From left: Dan, Steve, Stan, Brent, Carlo. We have succeeded in using two ice fishing drills to remove a gigantic prism from each side of the block.
The scene as each of the 13 teams starts by either removing snow or moving snow to the top of the block to add height.
Brent and Steve smooth out what will become the axial face of the torus on which our six spirals live. Steve is using an amazing tool he made that we call The Devil's Q-Tip.
Stan uses a saw to cut one of the two much smaller prisms that define the box that contains the torus.
