Reconstruction of the Ridge Way 5-07-2021 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. | ![]() | Copy circle 1 to its upper intersection with the vertical centerline. | |||
5. | ![]() | Draw the connecting line between the intersections of circles 2 and 4, and extend this line upto circle 3. | |||
6. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed square of circle 3, with one angular point on line 5. | |||
7. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, passing through the upper intersection of circle 2 and square 6. | |||
8. | ![]() | Draw the connecting line between the intersection of circle 1 and line 5, and the lefthand intersection of this circle with the horizontal centerline. | |||
9. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to line 8. | |||
10. | ![]() | Draw the connecting line between the intersection of circle 7 and line 5, and the lefthand intersection of this circle with the horizontal centerline. | |||
11. | ![]() | Construct a circle centered at the lefthand intersection of square 6 and the horizontal centerline, passing through the intersection of this square with line 10. | |||
12. | ![]() | Copy circle 11 two times, to the intersections of circles 1 and 7 with line 5. | |||
13. | ![]() | Construct four circles concentric to circle 1, passing through the intersections of circles 12 and line 5. | |||
14. | ![]() | Copy circle 11 four times, to the angular points of square 6. | |||
15. | ![]() | Construct the circumscribed square of circle 3, pointing up. | |||
16. | ![]() | Construct two sets of parallel lines, parallel to the diagonals of square 6, between the intersections of circles 14 and square 6, as shown. Extend these lines upto square 15. | |||
17. | ![]() | Circles 9 and 13, square 15, and lines 16, are used for the final reconstruction. | |||
18. | ![]() | Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself. pdf-file | |||
19. | ![]() | Colour all areas corresponding to standing... pdf-file | |||
20. | ![]() | ...or to flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the Ridge Way formation of 5-07-2021. pdf-file | |||
