Schmoyer Sundial
One of the highlights of the NASS conference in St. Louis was the 3D printed Schmoyer Sunquest civil time dial. The Schmoyer Sunquest is 3D printed plastic at 1/3 - scale (5 1/2" diam.) of Richard Schmoyer's original design. All requests will be filled in the order in which payment is received. If you want a dial for the Southern hemisphere or the original "classic" Schmoyer Sunquest dial without adjustment knob, you must let us know at the time you order the dial.
Since that time, Bob has made a number of tweaks to the design - including provisions for a dial in the Southern hemisphere and adding a knob to move the gnomon precisely for the weeks around the solstice where the gnomon Equation of Time has been stretched. The Schmoyer Sunquest is a 3D printed 1/3 - scale plastic version (5 1/2" diam.) of Schmoyer's original design. It comes as a kit that is easily assembled and adjusted for your location with a Phillips-head screwdriver and about 5 minutes of your time. Full instructions are included. We are happy to announce that you can now purchase the Schmoyer Sunquest from NASS (all profits will benefit NASS goals of education and fostering dialing projects and the art of gnomonics as a 501(3)c not for profit organization).
