Reconstruction of the Juggler's Lane 21-08-2005 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 to the right. | |||
3. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed circle of hexagon 2. | |||
4. | ![]() | Construct the circumscribed equilateral triangle of circle 3, pointing up. | |||
5. | ![]() | Construct the circumscribed circle of triangle 4. | |||
6. | ![]() | Copy circle 5 to its righthand intersection with the horizontal centerline, and move this circle to the corresponding intersection of itself. | |||
7. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 6 at the righthand side. | |||
8. | ![]() | Copy circle 1 to the center of circle 6. | |||
9. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 8 at the lefthand side. | |||
10. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 1, pointing up. | |||
11. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed circle of triangle 10. | |||
12. | ![]() | Copy circle 11 to the lefthand intersection of circle 9 and the horizontal centerline, and move this circle to its own righthand intersection with the horizontal centerline. | |||
13. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed hexagon of circle 12, pointing to the right. | |||
14. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed hexagon of circle 7, pointing to the right. | |||
15. | ![]() | Draw the six rays of hexagon 14, from the center to the angular points. | |||
16. | ![]() | Copy hexagon 13 five times, from its position on the leftmost ray 15 to the corresponding positions on the other rays 15, as shown. | |||
17. | ![]() | Copy hexagon 2, hexagon 13 and the two leftmost hexagons 16, as one set, from the center of hexagon 2 to the rightmost angular point of hexagon 14, as shown. | |||
18. | ![]() | Copy the set of hexagons 17 five times, and divide the sets over the other angular points of hexagon 14 in a similar way, along the other rays 15 (six in total), as shown. | |||
19. | ![]() | Hexagons 2, 13, 14, 16, 17 and 18, and rays 15, together make up the ingredients for the final reconstruction. | |||
20. | ![]() | Remove all superfluous parts, not visible within the formation itself. High resolution dwf-file | |||
21. | ![]() | Colouring all areas corresponding to standing... High resolution dwf-file | |||
22. | ![]() | ...or to flattened crop, completes the reconstruction of the Juggler's Lane formation of 21-08-2005. High resolution dwf-file | |||
