Reconstruction of the 2016 Fulley Wood formation | ||
| 1. |
| Draw a circle. Draw and extend the horizontal and vertical centerlines. |
| 2. |
| Construct a circle centered at the lefthand intersection, and passing through the righthand intersection of circle 1 and the horizontal centerline. |
| 3. |
| Copy circle 2 five times, to the lefthand intersection of circle 2 and the horizontal centerline, and consecutively to the corresponding intersections, as shown. |
| 4. |
| Copy circle 1 to the lefthand intersection of the leftmost circle 3 and the horizontal centerline. |
| 5. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 4 at the lefthand side. |
| 6. |
| Construct a circle centered at the righthand intersection, and passing through the lefthand intersection of circle 1 and the horizontal centerline. |
| 7. |
| Copy circle 6 five times, to the righthand intersection of circle 6 and the horizontal centerline, and consecutively to the corresponding intersections, as shown. |
| 8. |
| Construct five circles concentric to circle 2, tangent to circles 3 at the lefthand sides. |
| 9. |
| Construct five circles concentric to circle 6, tangent to circles 7 at the righthand sides. |
| 10. |
| Construct a circle centered at the lower, and passing through the upper intersection of circles 2 and 6. |
| 11. |
| Copy circle 10 to the center of circle 1. |
| 12. |
| Copy circle 1 to the upper intersection of circle 5 and the vertical centerline. |
| 13. |
| Construct a circle centered at the lower intersection of circle 11 and the vertical centerline, tangent to circle 12 at the upper side. |
| 14. |
| Construct a circle tangent to and outside of circles 2 and 6 at the lower sides, and tangent to circle 11. |
| 15. |
| Copy circle 14 to the upper intersection of circle 13 and the vertical centerline. |
| 16. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 13, tangent to circle 15 at the lower side. |
| 17. |
| Construct a circle centered at the upper intersection of circle 5 and the vertical centerline, tangent to circle 16 at the upper side. |
| 18. |
| Copy circle 17 six times, to the lefthand intersections of circles 2 and 8 with the horizontal centerline. |
| 19. |
| Construct six circles concentric to circle 2, tangent to circles 18 at the lefthand sides. See detail. |
| ||
| 20. |
| Construct five circles concentric to circle 6, tangent to circles 19 at the righthand sides, except for the innermost circle 19. See detail. |

| 21. |
| Circles 2, 5, 6, 8, 9, 13, 16, 19, and 20, are used for the final reconstruction. |
| 22. |
| Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself. |
| 23. |
| Colour all areas corresponding to standing... |
| 24. |
| ...or to flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the 2016 Fulley Wood formation. |
