To all  have interest for italics quadrants: 
I have built a horizontal italic quadrant, with the lines of the hours so that 
the 24th hour  coincide with the twilight of- 11° (in agreement with the line 
of the twilight of the astrolabes).

The construction is performed exclusively with graphic methods, using the more 
ancient known method, that of the Analemma of Ptolemy (or of Vitruvius). The 
method is rather long, but I retain that it 'll give satisfactory results, for 
any latitude (and for any hour system).

Whoever wants to know more, is begged to communicate his address, I will send 
to him the file in AutoCAD.
