Reconstruction of the Chilcomb Down 21-06-2016 formation | |||||
1. | Draw a circle. Draw and extend the horizontal and vertical centerlines. | ||||
2. | Copy circle 1 to its righthand intersection with the horizontal centerline. | ||||
3. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 2 at the righthand side. | ||||
4. | Construct the inscribed hexagon (regular 6-sided polygon) of circle 3, pointing to the right. | ||||
5. | Copy circle 1 six times, to the angular points of hexagon 4. | ||||
6. | Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 1, pointing up. | ||||
7. | Construct a circle, passing through the lower two angular points of hexagon 4, and tangent to the lower side of triangle 6. | ||||
8. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, passing through the center of circle 7. | ||||
9. | Construct the inscribed hexagon of circle 8, pointing down. | ||||
10. | Copy circle 7 five times, to the other angular points of hexagon 9. | ||||
11. | Construct the inscribed circle of triangle 6. | ||||
12. | Construct the inscribed hexagon of circle 11, pointing down. | ||||
13. | Construct the inscribed circle of hexagon 12. | ||||
14. | Construct the inscribed circle of hexagon 4. | ||||
15. | Construct the circumscribed equilateral triangle of circle 14, pointing down. | ||||
16. | Copy circle 13 to the lower angular point of triangle 15. | ||||
17. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 16 at the lower side. | ||||
18. | Circles 1, 5, 7, 8, 10, 13, and 17, are used for the final reconstruction. | ||||
19. | Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself. pdf-file | ||||
20. | Colour all areas corresponding to standing... pdf-file | ||||
21. | ...or to flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the Chilcomb Down formation of 21-06-2016. pdf-file | ||||
