Reconstruction of the 2000 Bishop Cannings formation |
|||||
| 1. |
| Draw a circle (the inner side of the ring). | |||
| 2. |
| Draw centerlines at 45°. | |||
| 3. |
| Construct two squares, one horizontal, one diagonal. | |||
| 4. |
| Draw eight circles, centered at the corners of the squares, and passing through the adjacent corners. | |||
| 5. |
| To determine the outer boundary of the ring, construct two larger squares through the corners of the smaller ones (of step 3), as shown. | |||
| 6. |
| Construct a large octagon (a regular eight-fold polygon) by connecting the corners of the larger squares. | |||
| 7. |
| Extend the four centerlines up to the sides of the large octagon. | |||
| 8. |
| From the endpoints of the centerlines, construct again an octagon, inscribed in the large one. | |||
| 9. |
| The outer border of the ring is formed by a circle, inscribed in the octagon of the previous step. | |||
| 10. |
| Removing all superfluous parts will yield the reconstruction of the 2000 Bishop Cannings formation. | |||
