Plate 208:  Constructing "E.L.L.Y." columns in the structural model, Part 4
(This plate added NOV 2003)

This plate is similar to Plate 207, except the distance to the east corner of the E.L.L.Y. column is being measured. The black mechanical pencil provides a straight-edge that "drops a perpendicular" from the column's corner to the measuring tape.

Note: in this picture, north is "down", south is "up".
