Just look inside my daughters mouth...she loses one more tooth and she'll be sporting a natural sundial.

I am soooo looking forward to cutting this! It's great that you can download the plans for free, courtesy of SSW&C.

Many years ago I bought a shepherds sundial which is basically a turned wooden cylinder with a wavy line that runs around it. The cylinder has twelve equally spaced holes drilled around the top and by moving a brass rod into a different hole as the months change, you can point it at the sun and tell the time.

They are quick and easy to make.
If you get the compass from a dollar store they make an inexpensive gift for Christmas.

Good idea, Carl. If I start work now, I might just be able to get one finished in time for Christmas.

Compass? Do you need to know how to read a compass for this project? You think I have problems uploading pictures you should see me trying to read a compass!! BUT if I know a direction I'm supposed to be heading in I'll find the road and get there!!
