From h a line isdrawn to d, which is a fixed point determined by the number of risersin the well-hole. From point d, the level tangent d 5 is drawn in linewith the level rail of the landing; thus the pitch-line of the tangentsover the well-hole is found, and, as was shown in the explanation ofFig. 95, the tangents as here presented will be those required on theface-mould to square the joints of the wreath. In Fig. 98 the tangents of the face-mould for the bottom wreathare shown to be a and h. To place tangent a in position on theface-mould, it is revolved, as shown by the arc, to m, cutting a line.
