  you need raw materials several deep holes are
  bored into a soapstone hillside. Miners loop one
  end of a long diamond-encrusted cable and attach
  it to a rod. It makes it easy to maneuver as they
  snare the cable through one of the vertical
  holes. A coiled snare is attached to the cable's
  other end and inserted in one of the horizontal
  holes. Thus, in this way, soapstones are
  manufactured.
