Part 2/4:
After some deliberation, the team proposed a counterintuitive yet resourceful method: using cement as a means to secure and reshape the ceramic piece. Their idea was to place a cap on the ceramic object and lay it on its side. This positioning allowed for the pouring of cement, which would support the ceramic securely.
By using this new technique, they envisioned filling the entire structure with cement, which not only would stabilize the ceramic object but also enable them to clean any excess material off the surface. This solution reflected a fundamental principle in problem-solving: sometimes, the most effective answers come from unconventional means.
