Hello Sundialers --
I used to lurk on this list years ago, I just rejoined and happy to see it is
still around. Here's a practical question for you sundial experts....
I have one of those reproduction "Mt Vernon" Virginia Metalworks brass
sundials. I've had it in storage for years and recently acquired a concrete
bird bath pedestal on clearance that I'd like to use to set the dial up on in
the backyard.The odd thing is that the dial has no mounting holes. There is a
bolt on the bottom center of the dial that secures the gnomon but no other
mounting holes are provided. (I guess they intended it to be gazed at adoringly
as decoration and not actually used!)
I could go and punch two holes in it on either side of the gnomon but it seems
a shame to ruin the nice brasswork. So I'm wondering if you folks have any
suggestions on securing/anchoring this to a concrete surface?
