7. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 4 at the upper side. | |||
8. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed hexagon of circle 7, pointing to the right. | |||
9. | ![]() | Copy circle 1 to the intersection of the upper side of hexagon 8 and the vertical centerline. | |||
10. | ![]() | Copy circle 3 to the center of circle 9. | |||
11. | ![]() | Copy circle 1 to the upper intersection of circle 10 and the vertical centerline. | |||
12. | ![]() | Copy circle 3 to the center of circle 11. | |||
13. | ![]() | Construct the "two-points" circle (defined by the two end-points of a centerline) between the upper intersections of circles 10 and 11 with the vertical centerline. | |||
14. | ![]() | Copy circle 1 to the center of circle 13. | |||
15. | ![]() | Copy circle 13 to the upper intersection of circle 14 and the vertical centerline, and move this circle (copy and delete original) to its own corresponding intersection. | |||
16. | ![]() | Copy circle 1 to the upper intersection of circle 14 and the vertical centerline. | |||
17. | ![]() | Copy circle 13 to the center of circle 1. | |||
18. | ![]() | Construct the "two-points" circle between the lower intersections of circles 4 and 6 with the vertical centerline. | |||
19. | ![]() | Copy circle 18 two times, to the center of circle 1, and to the upper intersection of circle 4 and the vertical centerline. | |||
20. | ![]() | Construct two parallel lines, tangent to circles 19 at both sides. | |||
21. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 16 at the upper side. | |||
22. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed dodecagon (regular 12-sided polygon) of circle 21, pointing up. | |||
23. | ![]() | Draw the twelve rays of circle 21 to the angular points of dodecagon 22. | |||
24. | ![]() | Copy circles 4, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, and 16, and lines 20, as a whole, eleven times, to the corresponding positions with respect to the other rays 23. | |||
![]() | |||||
25. | ![]() | Circles 1, 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17, lines 20, and 23, and pattern 24, are used for the final reconstruction. | |||
26. | ![]() | Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself. pdf-file | |||
27. | ![]() | Colour all areas corresponding to standing... pdf-file | |||
28. | ![]() | ...or to flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the Muncombe Hill formation of 14-07-2018. pdf-file | |||
