S02C09 update: Mayan Pyramid

Learning curve is a thing of the past! I've mastered loop cutting (Ctrl-R) and sliding (GG) in no time. Here's how it's done: two separate loop cuts are placed, side by side, rather than relying on the scroll wheel or properties window to adjust them to 2 loop cuts. This approach prevents flared-out bottoms - a major bummer! To fix this, the first cut is centered, followed by the second one being activated and slid over to meet it perfectly. The bottom of the pyramid posed another challenge: under z=0, it needed a serious boost. But instead of using g for a global lift, I opted for sliding along edges with GG - a more precise approach that requires smaller steps, like halving the size of the bottom step.
