Hi all
I would like to purchase a large vernier protractor with the
straight edges being about 2 feet (600mm) long. I have a small vernier
protractor by MOORE and WRIGHT Sheffield England but the straight edges
are only about 150 mm long. I need the large protractor for making large
sundials. Can anyone help me with the name of a maker and/or a source
for one?
One way that I thought that I could measure angles (for a large sundial)
is to make a large one myself by hinging two straight edges together
(each about 600mm long) and then use trigonometric functions to measure
the angles. Has anyone got any ideas on measuring angles.
Thanks in advance: Roderick Wall.
