Reconstruction of the Walmsgate 3-07-2011 formation | |||||
1. | ![]() | Draw a circle. Draw and extend the horizontal and vertical centerlines. | |||
2. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed hexagon (regular six-sided polygon) of circle 1, pointing up. | |||
3. | ![]() | Copy circle 1 to the upper righthand angular point of hexagon 2. | |||
4. | ![]() | Copy circle 1 to the righthand intersection of circle 3 and the horizontal centerline. | |||
5. | ![]() | Copy circle 1 to the upper righthand intersection of circles 3 and 4. | |||
6. | ![]() | Draw the connecting line between the center of circle 1 and the righthand intersection of circles 4 and 5. | |||
7. | ![]() | Construct a circle centered at the upper angular point of hexagon 2, tangent to line 6. | |||
8. | ![]() | Construct a circle centered at the lower angular point of hexagon 2, tangent to circle 7 at the lower side. | |||
9. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, passing through the center of circle 4. | |||
10. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed hexagon of circle 9, pointing to the right. | |||
11. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, passing through the center of circle 5. | |||
12. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed hexagon of circle 11, pointing up. | |||
13. | ![]() | Copy circle 7 eighteen times, to the center of circle 1, to the (other) angular points of hexagon 2 and to all angular points of hexagons 10 and 12. | |||
14. | ![]() | Copy circle 8 also eighteen times, to the center of circle 1, to the (other) angular points of hexagon 2 and to all angular points of hexagons 10 and 12. | |||
15. | ![]() | Circles 7, 8, 13 and 14, are used for the final reconstruction. | |||
16. | ![]() | Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself. High resolution dwf-file | |||
17. | ![]() | Colour all areas corresponding to standing... High resolution dwf-file | |||
18. | ![]() | ...or to flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the Walmsgate formation of 3-07-2011. High resolution dwf-file | |||
19. | ![]() Courtesy the Crop Circle Connector | The final result, matched with the aerial image. | |||
