tain that a few hints will be of fervice, efpecialiy to the inex- -
perienced. For this purpofe I have, in No. i, lettered each
gage-point, and I fliall proceed as fuppoling that it is neceffary
that the whole ihould be taught
When the pattern of any cornice is given to be worked,
take the drawing and ftrike a line a n to touch as near as may
be each member. From this front line ftrike one at each end
fquare from it, fo as to take in the whole extent of the cornice.
Then draw another line parallel to that on the front, to ihew
the neceffary thicknefs of the mahogany, and proceed as fol-
lows :
Let the fluff be fawn out broad enough to plane to b o;
after which, plane it true on both fides, and glue on deal of the
breadth of ep, and thick enough to make out the whole fpring
of the cornice. After the glue is dry, plane the mahogany to
the exadt breadth of b o. After ftriking a fquare line acrofs the
mahogany, extend the compaffes from a to a, and to c, /, &c.
and lay all thefe points on the fquare line, and run a gage thro’
each of them. Run then a gage from a to b, and from n to o;
and taking a bevel, fix the handle of it exactly by the front
line, and let the infide of the blade of it correfpond with o p.
With the bevel thus fixed, plane down the wood behind till it
fit the bevel in every place, and be brought down to o. Take
