Theveneering can be done in the usual wayusing cowls worked to the proper as to the work required for the the sweeps are so quick that solid stuffcannot be used the cheapest and certainly. £A/DN Fig. 4. 47 THE CARPENTER the most rapid method is that known as thelaminated process, which consists inbuilding up in thin layers or sheets of lesserthicknesses until the full thickness is ob-tained. To do this a form or drum ortemplet like Fig. 3, must be built of roughtimber, the curved top surface of whichmust correspond with that of B-D-C, Fig. 1,and be struck from a like thirty-six-inchradius. This must be finished clean andsmooth and sandpapered. Over this thelaminated sheets can be bent as represented,and, having been cut, toothed, heated andglued, are held down tight with handscrewsor shoring strips from the ceiling, concavecowls being used to preserve the form. Thegrains on each sheet must be reversed endfor end, and so varied as to obviate all dan-ger of the built-up piece springing or warp-ing from the shape laid out. In regard to the proper treatment of w6odso as to spften and bend readily withoutdanger of fracture the following ways aresuggested: 1. By using the he
