Dear Sun/Shadow watchers,
I've put up on my site at
http://www.vandp.com/stabdialinfo.pdf
a short but information filled article on the evolution of stab dials.
This is a first draft so any and all comments are welcome. I've not
included the details of most of the calculations at this point,
Dear Sun/Shadow watchers,
A Very happy Solstice to you all.
I've uploaded a short note on Spiral Time Dials at
http://www.vandp.com/spiral.pdf
( in Adobe Acrobat format )
That explains about a more sophisticated spiral that can tell time
more accurately.
As Always any comments are welcome!
Ed
