The “hoops” that form the heart of the magnet coil spaceframe are made by gluing together a number of arc segments to symmetrize shrinkage when the magnet is cooled. The gluing process, which must be completed quickly (due to set time of the epoxy) and carefully (due to stringent positioning requirements) requires quite a bit of choreography!
