Another stunning 3D model of Pit 20

Following on from the modelling work of last week, Mike Gill has now taken a series of photographs of the surface of the beam in Pit 20 which he has processed into a stunning 3D model, revealing the detailed texture of the top surface of the beam. A screenshot from the model is shown to the left (the scale has alternating red/white bands each of 100mm) but this shows just one aspect and for the full effect you really need to inspect the model which Mike has made available on the following link:
