Reconstruction of the Black Wood 21-06-2014 formation | |||||
1. | Draw a circle. Draw the horizontal and vertical centerlines. | ||||
2. | Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 1, pointing up. | ||||
3. | Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 1, pointing down. | ||||
4. | Construct a circle, passing through the top of triangle 2, and passing through the lefthand and righthand intersections of triangles 2 and 3. | ||||
5. | Copy circle 4 to the center of circle 1. | ||||
6. | Draw the connecting line between the upper intersections of circle 5 with the lefthand side of triangle 2 and the righthand side of triangle 3. | ||||
7. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to line 6. | ||||
8. | Draw the connecting line between the top of triangle 2 and the intersection of its lower side with the lefthand side of triangle 3. | ||||
9. | Construct a circle centered at the intersection of line 8 and the horizontal centerline, passing through the upper intersection of circle 7 and the vertical centerline. | ||||
10. | Copy circle 9 to the center of circle 1. | ||||
11. | Construct two circumscribed equilateral triangles of circle 10, one pointing to the left, one to the right. | ||||
12. | Construct two circumscribed equilateral triangles of circle 7, one pointing to the left, one to the right. | ||||
13. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, passing through the angular points of triangles 11. | ||||
14. | Draw the three diagonals of the hexagram (regular six-pointed star) made up by triangles 12, as shown. | ||||
15. | Draw the three diagonals of the hexagon (regular six-sided polygon) enclosed by triangles 12, as shown. | ||||
16. | Circles 1 and 13, triangles 11 and 12, and diagonals 14 and 15, are used for the final reconstruction. | ||||
17. | Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself. pdf-file | ||||
18. | Colour all areas corresponding to standing... pdf-file | ||||
19. | ...or to flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the Black Wood formation of 21-06-2014. pdf-file | ||||
