The March 1977 issue of The Compendium - Journal of the North American
Sundial Society includes an article which provides both graphic and formula
approaches to drawing Oughtred's double horizontal dial.  The issue also
includes a reprint of Oughtred's own brief description of how the dial is
to be used - sort of an early user's manual.  The digital edition of The
Compendium includes a program which, when combined with the Graphica
shareware package, will draw a double horizontal dial face for any
latitude.

Copies of this issue of The Compendium are still available from editor Fred
Sawyer at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
