Dear James,
I've just had another look at your drawing and Regner is correct in that the 
Earth's grid lines should be about the ecliptic axis. However will this make 
any material difference to the model?

  Here is the best drawing I can do right now. The orange ball is the earth at 
1.5 month intervals during the year. The Green pole is the annual axis. The red 
pole is the nightly axis. The blue circles are our camera at 3 hour intervals 
each night.

  To record 8 points of our annual star trails we will take a picture at 
midnight at each of the 1.5 month intervals. The camera position at midnight 
for each of the 8 locations must fall on the circle partially descibed by the 
blue dots, while also facing directly away from the center of everything (the 
sun).

  Will this record an annual or a nightly trail?
