Reconstruction of the Liddington Castle 23-08-2008 formation | |||||
1. | ![]() | Draw a circle. Draw the horizontal and vertical centerlines. | |||
2. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 1, pointing down. | |||
3. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 1, pointing up. | |||
4. | ![]() | Construct a circle centered at the mid-point of the lower side of triangle 3, tangent to both lower sides of triangle 2. | |||
5. | ![]() | Copy circle 4 six times, to the six mutual intersections of triangles 2 and 3. | |||
6. | ![]() | Draw the connecting line between the lower intersection of the upper righthand circle 5 and the righthand side of triangle 3, and the upper intersection of the lower righthand circle 5 and the righthand side of triangle 2. | |||
7. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to line 6. | |||
8. | ![]() | Construct a circle centered at the lower intersection of circle 1 and the vertical centerline, tangent to both lower circles 5 at the upper sides. | |||
9. | ![]() | Copy circle 8 two times, to the other angular points of triangle 2. | |||
10. | ![]() | Copy circle 8 three times, to the angular points of triangle 3. | |||
11. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, passing through the mutual intersections of circles 8, 9 and 10. | |||
12. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 8, tangent to circle 11 at the lower side. | |||
13. | ![]() | Copy circle 12 two times, to the centers of circles 9. | |||
14. | ![]() | Triangles 2 and 3, and circles 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12 and 13, are used for the final reconstruction. | |||
15. | ![]() | Remove all parts not visible in the formation itself. High resolution dwf-file | |||
16. | ![]() | Colour all areas corresponding to standing... High resolution dwf-file | |||
17. | ![]() | ...or to flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the Liddington Castle formation of 23-08-2008. High resolution dwf-file | |||
