From applicable 3- or 4-dancer formations. The formation must have some
dancers in a R-H Mini-Wave.
For example, a R-H Mini-Wave Box or a
Facing Diamond with the Centers in a R-H Mini-Wave.
- Those who can Right Arm Turn 1/4;
- those who meet and can Left Arm Turn 1/2;
- those who meet and can Right Arm Turn 3/4.
Usually ends in the same formation as the starting formation.
Remake is a 3-part call.

注意:
-
From an 8-dancer formation (e.g., R-H Columns, R-H Facing Point-to-Point Diamonds),
work within each group of 4. If the caller wishes both groups to work
together, (s)he will so indicate
(e.g., Grand Remake or, historically (from Columns), Remake The Column).
-
Remake can not be done from Facing Dancers.
Those starting the call must be in a R-H Mini-Wave.
-
Remake is same as 1/4 Thru followed by Right Arm Turn 3/4.
-
Remake always starts with the right-hand.
- Historically, many callers have used Remake as a R-H call.
- In recent history, however, CALLERLAB decreed
that "Remake is a R-H Call except when a formation is named, as in
Remake The Box | Wave | Column | Diamond", in which case, it is an
Any Hand call. This caused havoc in many arenas of square dancing,
and in 2002, CALLERLAB adopted this definition which Vic
was instrumental in proposing.
- The word "Left" must precede the "Remake" for the call to start
with the left-hand.
- The name of the formation may be added to the end of the call as an
aid to the dancers, but doing so is optional, just like "Checkmate"
and "Checkmate the Column" are the same call.
-
Remake is a 4-dancer call, just like 1/4 Thru and 3/4 Thru.
From R-H Columns, Remake is done in each box of 4, whereas
Grand Remake is done with all 8 dancers.
-
Start with the R-H and, alternating hands, Arm Turn 1/4, 1/2, and 3/4.
Think "1-2-3".
-
Historically, callers have called Remake and named a formation.
In this case, Remake was often an Any Hand movement.
(E.g., Remake The Box | Wave | Column | Diamond). This was helpful,
perhaps, for the dancers to determine in which formation to work.
In the case of Remake The Column, it indicated the
Grand version of the call was to be done. On the other hand,
this terminology was also confusing. If a caller said Remake The Wave, (s)he
actually wanted you to work in your Box! Remake The Wave
makes no sense since a Wave (a 4-dancer formation)
is not a formation from which Remake can be done.
-
Historically, callers have also called Remake as Remake The Setup.
This kind of Remake always started with the Right-Hand. Our
advice to callers today is to just call Remake. Don't include a formation,
and don't use the words "The Setup". When you want the call to start with
the Left-Hand, say Left Remake. When you want more than 4 dancers
to work together, say Grand Remake.

Remake The Thar [A2]
is a separate call, and starts with everyone doing an Any Hand Arm Turn 1/4.

when a formation is named, Remake becomes an Any Hand call.

From applicable 4-dancer formations.
Those who can Arm Turn 1/4;
