Anew method has been introduced, of applying a printed pattern to the prepared wood, asin the Tunbridge ware, and then varnishing it as usual. Ornamental pyrographic wood-work, for panels and in cabinet work, being a process for burning-in ornament uponwood, is now in operation. FKAMING. 2174. In/^. 781. are shown several methods for framing angles in dadoes, skirtings,troughs, and other objects, whereof A exhibits the method of mitring a dado on exteriorangles in an apartment. In fixing this together, brads may be driven from each side. Bis a method of framing used for troughs or other rectangular wooden vessels. C is amethod of putting a dado or skirting together at any interior angle of a room. This mode Chap. III. JOINERY. 667. is also ernployed for water-trunks, or troughs. In D isshown the manner of fixing and finishing two pieces offraming together, with a bead at their meeting, by whichthe joint is concealed. It is used only in common finish-ings. In those of a better sort the angle is kept entire,and only a three-eigiith bead used at the joint. It is of \/^^great importance in all joiners work to preserve thesliarpness of the angles of the work, and many preferto employ the method shown in F, without any bead atthe joint. In this the joint is maile as close as j^ossible,and is well glmd together. If additional strength be re-quired, blockings may 1)8 glued in the interior angle,which will make it quite firm. The method, by a simplemitre at E, is not so good as at A, because it has no abut-ment. 2175. When it is required to glue up large work, thoseedges which are
