The 18 Diagram
By Little Cesco
I will keep talk at a minimum but will explicitly point out that this diagram
is for use with TB´s, NOT pipes.
Since last time I posted about this construction several people did not read
what I had pointed out and kept suggesting using pipes....
The 18 has been tested with pipes and did NOT work.
So please set the pattern up using TB´s.
Thank you.
Here is how to construct the 18:
Step 1:
Make a circle with a compass, diameter optional.
Step 2:
Mark six points with your compass, this is done in the same way as with a
CB template.
Then draw two triangles between the marks making a hexagonal star.
Step 3:
From the crossing points of the hexagonal make another hexagonal star as shown
below:
Step
4:
Place your TB´s on each of the 18 crossing points and you now have a
functional 18.
After a minute or so after assembling the 18 a positive entity usually appears
above its center.
Do not place anything in its center.

information added: 17th of September 2008.
During experimentation with the 18 earlier this year I found it important
to test(with Laozu) the effects of a pentagram design similar to the 18.
This would then have 15 points instead of 18.
We constructed one and observed it for a while.
The effects were practically non-existant, we left it for a little while and
it had a mild negative effect,
so we dis-assembled it.
So the pentagram version is NOT recommended.
