Dear Robert,
According to your comment, I changed the sinusoidal projection to Cassini-Soldner, this really may have better look for larger globes.
Dear K McGrath, David Pike,
The attached samples can be generated by a program that I have written, and which can be
downloaded freely from my site. You can generate your own gores to your selected globe diameter with it.
I wish warless Happy New Year to Everybody!
Tibor
