| How to
position a Sundial |
|
A horizontal sundial consists of the dial
plate, marked off in hours, and the gnomon (the angled pointer which sits on
the noon line and projects out from the plate). |
 Now,
here is how you position it.
1. Make sure that you place it on a flat, solid surface and point the
stars on the dial towards the north.
2. At 12 noon, align the shadow from the gnomon to fall on the Roman
numerals XII (that's 12 o'clock in Latin numbers)
3. Check the time on your watch with that on the dial at different
hours of the day to confirm your settings before you finally fasten the
sundial to its base. |
