                                      or Canada, it will be sent normal mail, not air, not priority, this is because expedited packages to Mexico and Canada are very expensive.

                              I may have to hold the mailing until we can correct the shipping price. Mexico and Canada - use the air mail option. Mexico and Canada - do not use media
                              mail nor priority mail.

There are two price scales for the printed book "Illustrating Shadows" and "Illustrating More Shadows"

first                            Normal retail which most people use $25.00
second                      Discount for NASS, BSS                        $20.00

THE BOOKS with NORMAL or DISCOUNT prices and SHIPPING COSTS are simple one click buttons. If you want to order book one and book two, click its button, then return and click
the other button. They have their own shipping costs but sending both in the same package ends up costing about as much and the books can actually get damaged more, so except
for priority mail, they are sent separately.

The next book is ILLUSTRATING MORE SHADOWS. Whereas Illustrating Shadows focuses on theory and small dials and detailed dial construction, this
follow on book focuses on larger outdoor garden sundials using commonly available building materials from any building supply store. While the book
reviews all the normal dials for completeness, that review is an overview rather than the in depth treatment of the first book. Also a whole new major
section on inclined dials, and a chapter on the inclined decliner and much more on the declining dials. There are chapters dedicated to many methods
of building calendar lines, and on both cube decliners for the garden (16 by 16 inches) as well as indepth information for inclined decliners, with all the
design methods, and construction notes from start to finish. Inclined decliners will be a piece of cake with this book, and fun to do, and the spreadsheet
for the book was completely rewritten to facilitate the process. While the author prefers TurboCAD, there is a section explaining the methodology in
DeltaCAD and in simplified terms how the human interface is established, this includes animating DeltaCAD dial plates and so on. Also covered are dial
buying notes, reverse engineering, and DeltaCAD animation. The CD with the book is the standard CD but also includes at no extra cost Illustrating
Shadows as well as Illustrating More Shadows in full color. The CD is individually licensed and not resellable. NOTE: Book 1 on the CD is provided free
of charge. You are purchasing book 2, with book 1 and all the extras as freebies. As soon as the PayPal comes in, you get a userid and password to
download both books online, in color, that way you can start reading before the high quality CD and books arrive.
