dear Dan
I think one of the better way is to create a pool with few centimeters
of water around the sundial, small enough to allow to watch the dial,
large enough to avoid to reach it.
The bottom of the pool may have white o black little stones to get more
evidence for the sundial, this depends on the materials used for the
sundial. Moreover the stones get more difficult to walk in, even without
shoes.
It isn't dangerous for anyone but it is effective.
It may be necessary to circulate the water with an anti-algae.
It seems that vandals have very precious shoes, usually they have
attentions only for themselves.
ciao Fabio
but it is very useful for other street works.

Hello,
Horizontal sundials are often victims of vandalism. I am looking for
ideas or designs of gnomons which are not that easy to break off i.e.
how to attach them permanently to the base plate. Can you help?
Thanks,
