DIY Sundial!
I like sundials... little practical use, but a good thing to show kids, etc.
So I thought that this site was really clever!
It's a way of using Google to locate the wall that the sundial will go onto, sort out its orientation, then draw up a PDF to print and
assemble.
Neat!

I was always tempted to make an indoor one - a fixed, point lightsource and a motorised gnomen!

You don't, you use the moon dial.
Tell them about the bent treacle edges!
