MADE FOR ANY ASPECT WALL
Direct south wall sundials are symmetrical and show the time from 6 a.m. and 6.p.m. Sundials for other directions are asymmetric.
To calibrate your wall dial during manufacture Sundialman needs the bearing of the wall. Full instructions will be sent at the time of your order, or Nick will arrange to visit the site to take a reading if you prefer. For the difference between sundial and clock time see E.O.T. WHICH DIAL ? When choosing the size of a wall dial consider how far away a person
reading The choice of shape can be important. The proportions need to be appropriate for the wall and any openings or features on the wall such as doors and windows. Practically any shape is possible. The simplicity of square or rectangular dials make these the most popular. The Scroll Top design adds character if appropriately used. ENGRAVING The Hours can be shown with either Roman or Arabic numbers and any wording is included on the larger rectangular sizes. There is a small selection of traditional mottos on the mottos page. A separate Equation of time plate can be provided to mount near to the sundial.
