Conical surfaces may be developed by a method some-what similar to that used with cylindrical surfaces. A crosssection of the cone is divided into a number of equal parts. cated in Fig. 24. For inside angles, if Z? is the outside diameter and lines are drawn on the surface of the cone from these i8 LAYING OUT FOR BOILER MAKERS points to the vertex. For instance, in Fig. 25 the circumfer-ence of the base of the cone is divided into sixteen equal parts,and lines are projected from these points of division to thebase of the cone in the elevation. These points are then con-nected writh the vertex of the cone A. It may then be seen thatthe surface is divided into a number of triangles, the sides ofwhich are elements of the cone, and therefore equal to the dis-tance Al, and the bases equal to the length of the equal divis-ions shown in the p
