I now have the hour lines on my sandstone tile sundial.

Question: Can you put wax or something in the hour line grooves what did 
they use to do in the olden days?

I still have to do the hour numbers that will be next.


P.S: I have also ordered the book: "Lettercutting in stone" but I am

Thanks all:  Roderick Wall.
