Reconstruction of the Wayland's Smithy 4-08-2023 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. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of circle 1, pointing down. | |||
4. | ![]() | Construct a circle centered at the top of triangle 2, passing through the upper righthand intersection of triangles 2 and 3. | |||
5. | ![]() | Copy circle 4 two times, to the other angular points of triangle 2. | |||
6. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 4 at the upper side. | |||
7. | ![]() | Construct two inscribed equilateral triangles of circle 6, one pointing up, one pointing down. | |||
8. | ![]() | Construct the inscribed equilateral triangle of the circle, passing through the intersections of triangles 7, pointing to the left. | |||
9. | ![]() | Copy circle 4 to the intersection of the righthand side of triangle 8 and the horizontal centerline. | |||
10. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 9 at the righthand side. | |||
11. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 4, tangent to circle 10 at the upper side. | |||
12. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 11 at the lower side. | |||
13. | ![]() | Copy circle 11 to the upper intersection of circle 4 and the vertical centerline, and move this circle (copy and delete original) to its own corresponding intersection. | |||
14. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 13 at the upper side. | |||
15. | ![]() | Construct a circle concentric to circle 4, tangent to circle 14 at the upper side. | |||
16. | ![]() | Copy circle 15 two times, to the centers of circles 5. | |||
17. | ![]() | Copy circle 11 two times, to the centers of circles 5. | |||
18. | ![]() | Construct three pairs of parallel lines, parallel to the sides of triangle 2, tangent to circles 11 and 17 at both sides. | |||
19. | ![]() | Circles 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 14, 15, and 16, and lines 18, are used for the final reconstruction. | |||
20. | ![]() | Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself. pdf-file | |||
21. | ![]() | Colour all areas corresponding to standing... pdf-file | |||
22. | ![]() | ...or to flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the Wayland's Smithy formation of 4-08-2023. pdf-file | |||
