MAKE YOUR OWN SUNDIAL
July 26 & 27
Make your own sundial and synchronize yourself with the predictable constant of time. Participants will make a simple marble and metal gnomen style sundial marked with time indicators. Discussion will include marking solar noon, seasonal effect of the cast shadow at your latitude and longitude, marking the hours and the seasons and developing the analemma. Hand chisels and some power tools will be used. Open to all technical skill levels.http://carvingstudio.org/event/stone-carving-tools-and-techniques-july-28-august-1/
