Reconstruction of the 2007 Hat Gate Cottage 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 centered at the upper intersection of circle 1 and the vertical centerline, tangent to circle 2 at the upper lefthand side. |
| 4. |
| Construct a circle centered at the upper intersection of circles 1 and 2, tangent to circle 3 at the righthand side. (Notice, that these first steps are identical to the first four steps of the reconstruction of the Hailey Wood formation of 16-07-2007!) |
| 5. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 3, tangent to circle 4 at the lower righthand side. (This step also appears in the reconstruction of the Hailey Wood formation, as step 20). |
| 6. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 5 at the upper side. |
| 7. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 2, passing through the lower intersection of circle 3 and the vertical centerline. |
| 8. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 7 at the righthand side. |
| 9. |
| Copy circle 5 to the righthand intersection of circle 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 9, tangent to circle 6 at the righthand side. |
| 12. |
| Copy circle 11 to the righthand intersection of circle 10 and the horizontal centerline. |
| 13. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 12 at the righthand side. |
| 14. |
| (Steps 14 through 25 are repetitions of steps 9, 10, 12 and 13). Copy circle 5. |
| 15. |
| Circle concentric to circle 1. |
| 16. |
| Copy circle 11. |
| 17. |
| Circle concentric to circle 1. |
| 18. |
| Copy circle 5. |
| 19. |
| Circle concentric to circle 1. |
| 20. |
| Copy circle 11. |
| 21. |
| Circle concentric to circle 1. |
| 22. |
| Copy circle 5. |
| 23. |
| Circle concentric to circle 1. |
| 24. |
| Copy circle 11. |
| 25. |
| Circle concentric to circle 1. |
| 26. |
| Copy circle 11 to the center of circle 1. |
| 27. |
| Construct the inscribed hexagram of circle 26, by constructing two inscribed equilateral triangles, one pointing to the left, one to the right. |
| 28. |
| Extend all sides of hexagram 27 in both directions up to circle 23. |
| 29. |
| Circles 1, 6, 8, 10, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23 and 25, and lines 28 are used for the final reconstruction. |
| 30. |
| Remove everything not present in the formation itself. |
| 31. |
| Colour all areas with standing... |
| 32. |
| ...or with flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the 2007 Hat Gate Cottage formation. |
| 33. |
| The final result, matched with the aerial image. |
