Hello!

This is not particularly sundial-related but: can you create an oblique
azimuthal equidistant projection solely by technical drawing in Delta Cad?
I understand that David Chandler's planisphere uses such a projection in
both southern and northern face and it looks great.

While I am familiar to the stereographic projection used for the climates
of astrolabes, I have no idea how to go about on creating an oblique
azimuthal for generating the horizon line in a planisfere such as
Chandler's. Polar equal azimuthal for the starmap seems fairly easy to do.

I would appreciate it if you can help while keeping math to a minimum :)
