The sundial works according to an ancient principle, which was in use long before our era. People at that time took the position of the sun to divide up time. So that makes the sundial the predecessor of our clock.
As the sun shines on the pin in the sundial, it throws a shadow on a time scale. The shadow line acts as the hands of a clock and indicates the time. The sundial is regulated to our summertime when the sun shines the longest and when we are in the garden the most.
Put the sundial in a sunny spot in the garden. Make sure the foundation is solid and level. With the Gnomon (angled shaft) facing north turn the sundial until the shadow of the Gnomon indicates the correct time. Your sundial has now been installed. For accuracy this is best carried out at midday and in midsummer.
Installation of Wall Mounted – Vertical Sundials
Wall mounted sundials MUST be on a wall that faces South. At midday set the dial up so that the shadow from the Gnomon is over the 12.
