Congratulations on a very handsome dial, beautifully conceived and then realized by the Cardozo Kindersley workshop. That PDF will come in very handy when explaining other delineations. Thank you! Anyone wishing to develop those wonderful carved lettering skills in slate would be well advised to seek out a copy of the fully illustrated "Letters Slate Cut" by Kindersley & Cardozo ISBN 0 9501946 7 0 where the tools and techniques are described in detail.
