I'm going to summise...

two (or more) people and a length of rope marked off at 1m intervals
walking up and down the tractor tracks

to make a circle - one stands on the spot and the other walks around them holding the rope tight

thats how I always thought they did it anyway Confused

The biggest surprise is that some one has bothered to study them enough to become an "expert". I don't remember my careers advisor ever talking about a course for studying crop circles or how many "A" levels where required to take it. Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked

In the sixties they would have been called Hippies these days they are called "crop circle experts" Thumbs Up Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

Beginning to sound like a good job. Whistle Whistle

 I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
