7. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circles 5 and 6 at the far sides. | ||||
8. | Construct a line, tangent to circles 3 and upper left 4 at the upper sides. | ||||
9. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to line 8. | ||||
10. | Construct the inscribed square of circle 9. | ||||

12. | Construct the circumscribed equilateral triangle of circle 9, pointing down. | ||||
13. | Construct the circumscribed circle of triangle 12. | ||||
14. | Copy circle 13 to the upper right angular point of triangle 12. | ||||
15. | Construct a circle centered at the upper left angular point of triangle 12, tangent to circle 14 at the near side. | ||||
16. | Copy circle 15 to the center of circle 1. | ||||
17. | Construct three circles concentric to circles 3 and 4, each tangent to circle 16 at the near side. | ||||
18. | Draw the line connecting the center of circle 1 to the upper right angular point of triangle 12. | ||||
19. | Construct a circle centered at the intersection of circle 16 and line 18, tangent to circle 3 at the near side. | ||||

22. | Copy circle 19 to the intersection of circle 13 and line 18. | ||||
23. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 22 at the near side. | ||||
24. | Construct the inscribed hexagon (regular 6-sided polygon) of circle 13. | ||||
25. | Construct the inscribed circle of hexagon 24. | ||||
26. | Circles 3, 4, 7, 11, 17, 21, 23 and 25 form the basis for the reconstruction. | ||||
27. | Remove all parts invisible in the formation. High resolution dwf-file | ||||
28. | Colouring green all areas corresponding to standing crop... High resolution dwf-file | ||||
29. | ...or to flattened crop, finishes the reconstruction of the Weyhill 28-07-2002 formation. High resolution dwf-file | ||||
