Reconstruction of the Long Wood 3-06-2019 formation | |||||
1. | Draw a circle. Draw and extend the horizontal and vertical centerlines. | ||||
2. | Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 1, pointing up. | ||||
3. | Copy circle 1 three times, to the angular points of triangle 2. | ||||
4. | Construct the circumscribed hexagon (regular 6-sided polygon) of circle 1, pointing to the right. | ||||
5. | Construct a circle with the upper side of hexagon 4 as its centerline. | ||||
6. | Copy circle 5 two times, to the other angular points of triangle 2. | ||||
7. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 5, tangent to the lower righthand circle 3 at the upper lefthand side. | ||||
8. | Copy circle 7 two times, to the other angular points of triangle 2. | ||||
9. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, passing through the intersection of circle 7 and the upper righthand side of hexagon 4. | ||||
10. | Copy circle 9 three times, to the angular points of triangle 2. | ||||
11. | Construct a circle centered at the intersection of the lower side of triangle 2 and the vertical centerline, tangent to the lower lefthand circle 3 at the righthand side. | ||||
12. | Copy circle 11 to the upper intersection of circle 9 and the vertical centerline. | ||||
13. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 12 at the upper side. | ||||
14. | Construct a circle centered at the righthand angular point of hexagon 4, tangent to circle 13 at the righthand side. | ||||
15. | Copy circle 14 to the intersection of circle 7 and the righthand side of triangle 2. | ||||
16. | Construct a circle concentric to circle 5, tangent to circle 15 at the lower righthand side. | ||||
17. | Copy circle 16 two times, to the other angular points of triangle 2. | ||||
18. | Circles 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 13, 16, 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 Long Wood formation of 3-06-2019. pdf-file | ||||
