Begin by cutting a 20 diameter circle from a 3/4 sheet of plywood. Sand and paint it white with an exterior-grade paint. • Determine the geographic latitude for your location. (Most of Northern Ontario is 45º.) Subtract that from 90, and this will be the angle at which you need to cut your 4x4 post. We cut our post at 32 . • Draw a straight horizontal line through the centre of your board, followed by a half moon about 1 inside the edge. Using a protractor, make your first mark at the 90º. (This is 12:00.) Make marks every 15º on each side until you reach 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. These are your hour lines coming from the centre hole of your board. Paint all lines using black exterior paint. • We added roman numerals and a.m./p.m. markings. • Attach your gnomon (this is what is used to cast the shadow) using a 1/2 pipe flange and 6 of pipe. • What projects should we make next?
