Reconstruction of the Rodfield Lane 16-07-2019 formation | |||||
1. | Draw a circle. Draw and extend the horizontal and vertical centerlines. | ||||
2. | Construct the inscribed hexagon (regular 6-sided polygon) of circle 1, pointing up. | ||||
3. | Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 1, pointing down. | ||||
4. | Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 1, pointing up. | ||||
5. | Construct a circle passing through the top of hexagon 2, and passing through the lefthand and righthand intersections of triangles 3 and 4. | ||||
6. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 5 at the lower side. | ||||
7. | Copy circle 6 to its lower intersection with the vertical centerline. | ||||
8. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 7 at the lower side. | ||||
9. | Draw three rays of circle 1, to the angular points of triangle 4. | ||||
10. | Copy hexagon 2 (with its center) to the intersection of circle 6 and the lower righthand ray 9. | ||||
11. | Copy hexagon 2 five more times, to the other intersections of circles 6 and 8 with rays 9. | ||||
12. | Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 6, pointing down. | ||||
13. | Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 8, pointing down. | ||||
14. | Construct the circumscribed equilateral triangle of circle 8, pointing down. | ||||
15. | Construct the inscribed circle of triangle 12. | ||||
16. | Copy circle 15 to the upper intersection of circle 8 and the vertical centerline. | ||||
17. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 16 at the upper side. | ||||
18. | Construct the circumscribed equilateral triangle of circle 17, pointing down. | ||||
19. | Construct a circle centered at the righthand intersection of circle 1 and the horizontal centerline, passing through the top of hexagon 10. | ||||
20. | Copy circle 19 to the center of circle 1. | ||||
21. | Copy circle 15 to the upper intersection of circle 20 and the vertical centerline. | ||||
22. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 21 at the upper side. | ||||
23. | Circles 1, 20, and 22, hexagons 2, 10, and 11, and triangles 3, 12, 13, 14, and 18, are used for the final reconstruction. | ||||
24. | Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself. pdf-file | ||||
25. | Colour all areas corresponding to standing... pdf-file | ||||
26. | ...or to flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the Rodfield Lane formation of 16-07-2019. pdf-file | ||||
