+The work here is inspired by the designs and meticulous documentation provided by [[https://www.printables.com/@yba2cuo3_12119|@yba2cuo3]] on [[https://www.printables.com/|printables]]. ((https://www.printables.com/model/1036568-curved-analemma-plate-for-a-heliochronometer-sundi)) I wanted a pure python solutions without using blender.
-As a 3D hobbyist we sometime want to do complicated things that is hard to do accurately in 3D design tools. Since I discovered the use of SVG's and python tools to generate them, I wondered if I can reproduce an Analemma to use on a sundial using Python code. After many wasted hours and trail and error working out angular math in python I can report that it is in fact quite feasible. The catch was converting to radians.

+This format converted from a plot renders acceptably, but fails to properly import into at least Fusion 360. It is not very useful for 3D printing purposed. Some online tool may do a better job at converting this properly for CAD use.
