Reconstruction of the Baggwilgraben (Switzerland) 17-06-2018 formation | |||||
1. | ![]() | Draw a circle. Draw 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 inscribed dodecagon (regular 12-sided polygon) of circle 3, pointing up. Number the angular points clockwise 1 - 12, starting at the top. | |||
5. | ![]() | Draw the twelve rays of circle 3, to the angular points of dodecagon 4. | |||
6. | ![]() | Draw the diagonal of dodecagon 4 between angular points nrs. 3 and 11. | |||
7. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to diagonal 6. | |||
8. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed hexagon of circle 7, pointing up. | |||
9. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed circle of hexagon 8. | |||
10. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed hexagon of circle 9, pointing to the right. | |||
11. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed circle of hexagon 10. | |||
12. | ![]() | Construct a circle, passing through angular point nr. 1, and passing through the intersections of circle 9 and rays 5 nrs. 4 and 10. | |||
13. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 12, passing through angular point nr. 2. | |||
14. | ![]() | Repeat steps 12 and 13 eleven times, with respect to the other angular points (nrs, 2 - 12) of dodecagon 4. | |||
15. | ![]() | Circles 1, 11, 12, 13, and 14, are used for the final reconstruction. | |||
16. | ![]() | Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself. pdf-file | |||
17. | ![]() | Colour all areas corresponding to standing... pdf-file | |||
18. | ![]() | ...or to flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the Baggwilgraben formation of 17-06-2018. pdf-file | |||
