I'm halfway tempted to call some friends and give it a whirl, just to see how fast we can pull it off. You can really get some surprisingly complex designs with just a bit of planning....

Why would I fail? I wouldn't do it by inscribing triangles like on that page - that's a pain in the butt, so I'd start with the large circle and work inward, but it's not at all hard. That web page tells you basically how to do it. The outer points are easy - splitting a circle into 60 sections is hardly difficult.

It's a dead giveaway that it's a multiple of six. I'd bet good money that with me and five other guys, working in three pairs, we could get it done in under three hours. It's time-consuming, sure, but hardly difficult...

Whoa! I know I'm late on this point but what did I miss here? You just map the 12 critical points and then 8 people could do it in an hour!???

I note that you could also map and mark the critical points weeks if not days in advance. Where's the difficulty here?
