How to print and solve

  1. Choose the Puzzle PDF for your paper. Select the matching paper size and Actual size / 100% in your print dialog.
  2. Measure the footer check line: it should be 50 mm. Fit-to-page can change the printed number size.
  3. Connect consecutive numbers within one range at a time. C means connect the last point back to the first point of that range. O means stop at its last point. Lift your pen between every range; never bridge ranges.
  4. Do not draw a baseline across the open building or doorway. The dome ribs are also open. Close only the ranges marked C, then lift your pen before the next range.

Physical A4 and Letter printing and independent human full-solve are NOT TESTED. Printer margins vary. This is not a verified large-print resource; age suitability and solve time are unmeasured.

Inside this hilltop observatory worksheet

The first range follows the open building boundary. Further ranges add the dome shutter, two dome ribs, windows, an open doorway, telescope tube and foundation steps. Five ranges close; four stop at their final point.

Curved dome sections alternate with angular architectural details and a tilted telescope. The long step edges provide sequence tracking rather than extra pictorial detail. Difficulty and solve time are unmeasured.
