Hi,
My favourite example of a robust public dial is the Dodwell dial located in
Adelaide, South Australia. As (I hope) the appended photo shows, it is a
variant of a polar dial, which, in effect, has been split in two, with the
resulting gnomons moved to the outer edges. It has been in situ since about
1942 with no evidence of vandalisation.
best wishes,
Peter

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,
