Reconstruction of the Pilgrim's Trail 12-07-2022 formation | |||||
1. | ![]() | Draw a circle. Draw and extend the horizontal and vertical centerlines. | |||
2. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed regular 19-sided polygon of circle 1, pointing up. | |||
3. | ![]() | Construct a circle centered at the lower lefthand angular point of polygon 2, passing through the lower intersection of circle 1 and the vertical centerline. | |||
4. | ![]() | Copy circle 3 to the top of polygon 2. | |||
5. | ![]() | Draw the connecting line between the intersections of circle 4 and the vertical centerline. | |||
6. | ![]() | Divide line 5 into twelve equal parts. Number the nodes 1 - 11 from top to bottom. | |||
7. | ![]() | Construct six circles concentric to circle 1, passing through nodes 6 nrs. 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11. See detail. | |||
![]() | |||||
8. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 4, passing through node 6 nr. 4. | |||
9. | ![]() | Copy circle 8 two times, the first to the lefthand intersection of circles 1 and 4, the second to the righthand intersection of the first and circle 1. | |||
10. | ![]() | Copy circle 3 to the angular point of polygon 2 next to the top at the lefthand side. See detail. | |||
![]() | |||||
11. | ![]() | Construct three circles concentric to circle 10, passing through the other intersections of circles 1 and 9. | |||
12. | ![]() | Copy circle 3 to the center of circle 1. | |||
13. | ![]() | Copy circle 3 four times, the first to the upper intersection of circle 4 and the vertical centerline, the next ones to the corresponding intersections of every previous one. | |||
14. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 4, passing through node 6 nr. 5. See detail. | |||
![]() | |||||
15. | ![]() | Copy circle 14 to the upper intersection of the upper circle 13 and the vertical centerline. | |||
16. | ![]() | Construct two circles concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 15 at both sides. See detail. | |||
![]() | |||||
17. | ![]() | Copy circles 10 and 11 fifteen times, to the other angular points of polygon 2, except for the top and the two lowest ones. | |||
18. | ![]() | Circles 7, 10, 11, 12, 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 Pilgrim's Trail formation of 12-07-2022. pdf-file | |||
