Greetings fellow dialists, Re The Housewife's Trick, I once encountered a man who owned a south facing wall dial with a hinged gnomon he had made which could be moved in and out in a vertical plane, altering the style height. He claimed not only to be able to correct for the equation of time but for DST as well! I wasn't able to stop long enough (several weeks?) to check the accuracy, though. Frank 55N 1W
