Reconstruction of the Black Wood 21-06-2014 formation | |||||
1. | ![]() | Draw a circle. Draw the horizontal and vertical centerlines. | |||
2. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 1, pointing up. | |||
3. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 1, pointing down. | |||
4. | ![]() | Construct a circle, passing through the top of triangle 2, and passing through the lefthand and righthand intersections of triangles 2 and 3. | |||
5. | ![]() | Copy circle 4 to the center of circle 1. | |||
6. | ![]() | Draw the connecting line between the upper intersections of circle 5 with the lefthand side of triangle 2 and the righthand side of triangle 3. | |||
7. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to line 6. | |||
8. | ![]() | Draw the connecting line between the top of triangle 2 and the intersection of its lower side with the lefthand side of triangle 3. | |||
9. | ![]() | Construct a circle centered at the intersection of line 8 and the horizontal centerline, passing through the upper intersection of circle 7 and the vertical centerline. | |||
10. | ![]() | Copy circle 9 to the center of circle 1. | |||
11. | ![]() | Construct two circumscribed equilateral triangles of circle 10, one pointing to the left, one to the right. | |||
12. | ![]() | Construct two circumscribed equilateral triangles of circle 7, one pointing to the left, one to the right. | |||
13. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, passing through the angular points of triangles 11. | |||
14. | ![]() | Draw the three diagonals of the hexagram (regular six-pointed star) made up by triangles 12, as shown. | |||
15. | ![]() | Draw the three diagonals of the hexagon (regular six-sided polygon) enclosed by triangles 12, as shown. | |||
16. | ![]() | Circles 1 and 13, triangles 11 and 12, and diagonals 14 and 15, are used for the final reconstruction. | |||
17. | ![]() | Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself. pdf-file | |||
18. | ![]() | Colour all areas corresponding to standing... pdf-file | |||
19. | ![]() | ...or to flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the Black Wood formation of 21-06-2014. pdf-file | |||
