Dear Maciej and Sara,

Gosh.  Those are really incredible dials.
The Nested L-shapes of the chapter rings
on the Jacques Le Marie dial are very
cleverly set out.  I wonder how big a
market there was for this kind of dial!

Maciej's description of a Nuremberg
Diptych - The shadow was cast by the
edges of the upper leaf of the dial -
is quite close to what I have in mind.

This would be fine in British Latitudes
but as you move nearer to the equator
you find yourself having to peer inside
an ever-narrowing gap!

Very best wishes

Frank
