Bill: I have built two such sundials, which indicate the time and date accurately to within the minute and the day. They also quickly adjust for Daylight Saving Time. I have created a web page with a description and pictures of both dials, including the method, calculations and data I used for their design. Hope you find this useful.
To All: This is my first post to this group, and the first time I have publicly posted this web page address (http://netnow.micron.net/~petes/sundial/index.htm). I would sincerely appreciate your corrections, comments and suggestions. Much thanks.
