Re: Sundial drawing request
Thad at the moment I am working on the new version of my software SONNE which includes the construction of ring dials as shown on page 158 in Waughs book. This version is nearly finished and could be helpful for you. So I guess in one or two weeks the beta-version of my software update including ring dials (in German we call them farmers rings) well be on my webpage for download.

For a sundial talk I have made an Illustrator drawing of one of my horizontal dials set up as you describe but not an armillary I'm afraid. I'll attach a PDF to a direct mailing. > >This information is going to be printed and given out to the general >public, so copyrights may be an issue.
