Illustrator and 7 divided circle

This is reminder for myself on using Illustrator to creat a 7 part circle.

My brother did up an awesome snake for the Orlandont logo.
The one tweak I had was 7 cuts, as opposed to 5 or 6.

I tried math. I tried division. I tried free handing the angles. Then
adapting another tutorial got me to here.

Here goes. In Illustrator:
Draw A circle. 2 inches. GIve it a 10 pt stroke, no fill.
Double click the star tool at the center point of the circle.
Change to 7 point star.
Size it down.
Go to top menu OBJECT>PATH>Divide Object Below

You'll get a funky looking object. Using the BLACK arrow,
try and select the bigger objects. (DON'T DELETE THE PIE SHAPES)

Now,with the white arrow, drag from the inside circle to select the point of the pie shape.
Delete, working your way around.
Now you have a 7 section circle!

Adjust the stroke to the thickness you want.

To finish it off, you could use black arrow, select all the sections,
and OBJECT>PATH>Outline Stroke

to get solid boxes. (strokes get messed up if you share them with folks...)

Dang. 3 hours to arrive here.
