Charles,

In the BSS bulletins some articles are written about ring dials.
96.1 page 30 by Colin J. Thorne
97.2 page 24 by Colin J. Thorne
97.3 page 40 by F.J. de Vries, edited by Colin J. Thorne
97.4 page 40 corrigenda to the article in bulletin 97.3

Many of your questions are answered in these articles.

Some remarks :

Don't incorpurate a latitude adjustment.
This won't work.
An altitude dial can't be corrected for use at another latitude.

Use a V shaped hole in a rather thick material.
Only the inner part then acts as the hole for the sun spot and that's
just the right place.

Fer.
