Reconstruction of the West Kennett 13-07-2004 formation | |||||
1. | Draw a circle. Draw and extend the horizontal and vertical centerlines. | ||||
2. | Copy circle 1 to its lower intersection with the vertical centerline. | ||||
3. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 2 at the lower side. | ||||
4. | Construct the circumscribed dodecagon (regular 12-sided polygon) of circle 1, one side up, as shown. | ||||
5. | Construct the circumscribed circle of dodecagon 4. | ||||
6. | Copy circle 3 to the upper intersection of circle 5 and the vertical centerline. | ||||
7. | Copy circle 3 to the lower intersection of circle 6 and the vertical centerline. | ||||
8. | Construct the circumscribed dodecagon of circle 7, one side up, as shown. | ||||
9. | Construct the circumscribed circle of dodecagon 8. | ||||
10. | Construct the inscribed dodecagon of circle 3, pointing up. | ||||
11. | Construct the inscribed circle of dodecagon 10. | ||||
12. | Construct the circumscribed regular 36-sided polygon of circle 3, one side up, such that the midpoint of that side lies on the vertical centerline. | ||||
13. | Draw the 36 rays, from the center of circle 3 to all angular points of polygon 12. | ||||
14. | Circles 1, 3, 7, 9 and 11, and lines 13 make up all necessary constituents for the reconstruction. | ||||
15. | Leave out all superfluous parts. High resolution dwf-file | ||||
16. | Colour the areas corresponding to standing... High resolution dwf-file | ||||
17. | ...or to flattened crop. This finishes the reconstruction of the West Kennett formation of 13-07-2004. High resolution dwf-file | ||||
