Plans for a dodecahedron model with sundial faces (incomplete)
The following files currently contain the source files for generating
a plan of a dodecahedron with a single sundial face and the output.
There are additional diagrams illustrating how the face is found.
I plan to add additional sundial faces for other more-or-less
southward-pointing faces.
