The
majority of the east and west granite tiles have been
positioned. The job was delayed at this stage for a few days
because of bad weather; rain and even some snow.

Work
resumes!
During
the process of laying the pavers and placing the rails they
were set into position by using a vibrating compactor. They
were then locked into place by sweeping sand into all the
cracks.
This photo shows
the prepared sand base and the rails set in place at the north
end of the dial.
Here we
are ready to place the last piece of granite. This was a
really heavy one!
This is the piece
that fills the space between the two rails at noon which form
the noon gap.
