Modern cabinet work, furniture & fitments; an account of the theory & practice in the production of all kinds of cabinet work & furniture with chapters on the growth and progress of design and construction; illustrated by over 1000 practical workshop drawings, photographs & original designs . oin these points to G, the joint line for veneer is shown by each of these, and the whole length of veneer required is (c a x 4).Geometrical projection and development applied to an octagonal shape is illustrated in f. 2. The outline is drawn first, and to obtain the correct representation of the intersections of adjoining faces in elevation, a plan is required, a be, &c. Draw the diagonals bf, eg, &c, and divide the elevation by drawing horizontals for reference lines numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, &c. From reference line No. 2, drop a perpendicular cut-ting the diagonals bf and eg in plan, and con-tinue also with 3, 4, and 5. These lines are now drawn parallel to each side of the octagon, and represent sectional plans of the elevation on the cutting planes or reference lines. Project the points marked a b, &c, on diagonal dh to the reference lines, and proceed similarly with the points on diagonal ae, then complete the elevation by drawing the angle lines through these PRACTICAL SETTING OUT AND APPLIED GEOMETRY 245 To Develop one Surface.—This method will be understood from thedescription given in the previous example ; draw the centre and reference lines,when the points for the curves are obtained by measuring the distance of/// ;/ op, &c, from the centre line of elevation, and transferring to the diagram. Bevelled Work Development. The term hopper is generally applied in cabinetmaking to work thattapers towards the bottom, instances of which occur in pedestals, wine coolers,caskets, &c. The method ofobtaining the true cuts at theangles is shown in f. 2 along-side—a wine cooler. Part isshown of a four-sided ex-ample, and the further appli-cation of the principles in-volve
