Figure 2.
Annuli in $T^i$ about $\beta^i$ and $\alpha_n^i$ . Expanding annulus with core curve $\beta^i$ , on the left, and flat annulus about $\alpha_n^i$ , on the right, at the time when $\alpha_n^i$ is balanced
Figure 3.
The interval when $\alpha_k^i$ is short. For $k = 2n$ , the curves $\alpha_k^i,\; i\in\mathbb{Z}_3$ , start getting short at different times, but they grow back to length 1 roughly at the same time. We choose $t_n$ in the shaded interval to guarantee that all three curves are short and have collar neighborhoods of approximately the same width
