20. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 19 at the righthand side. | ||||
21. | Construct a circle, tangent to circle 7 (from the outside), and tangent to the righthand sides of hexagon 6. | ||||
22. | Copy circle 21 four times, to the centers of circles 1 and 9. | ||||
23. | Construct three pairs of parallel lines, parallel to rays 13, tangent to circles 22 at both sides. | ||||
24. | Circles 7, 9, 11, 12, 14, 15, 17, and 20, and lines 23, are used for the final reconstruction. | ||||
25. | Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself. pdf-file | ||||
