Violin-making, as it was and is : being a historical, theoretical, and practical treatise on the science and art of violin-making, for the use of violin makers and players, amateur and professional . Fig. 193 Operation ofsplicing heart on toneck (front view). Fig. 192.—Operation of splicing head on toneck (side view). 314 VIOLIN-MAKING: AS IT WAS AND IS. h a a 1 inch, but of course this depends on the breadth of the modelof the scroll. When this chamber is finished smooth and clean,you can proceed to prepare the neck (b, Figs. 192, 193, and 196)with the conical plug, Fig. 195, to fit into this chamber. Takethe breadth between the sides of the peg-box at a, ay Fig. 194,with a pair of compasses, measure this breadth on a rule, anddivide it exactly by half (so that if the breadth was § inch, youhave your compasses open J inch). Mark off this distanceb by Fig. 195, on each side of the line a a, Fig. 195, which repre-sents the face of the neck block before the plug is cut. Nowtake the breadth at b b, Fig. 194, and mark off half of it, c c,Fig. 195, on each side of the line a a, Fig. 195, and taking thepoints b c, and b c, Fig. 195, as guides, draw on the surface ofFig. 195 the lines
