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 . 124). An original table, manufactured byMessrs J. S. Henry & Co., of Old Street,London, is illustrated, in which a maximumamount of show space is obtained. End eleva-tion shows the glazed framing dowelled betweenthe legs, a false bottom is grooved across theends and back before glueing up, and formsa filling or soffit to the projecting front part,rebated into the front rails and screwed fromunderneath. The smaller type shown is rect-angular in shape, and does not demand a detailed explanation. Curio tables,shaped in plan, are also frequently made, the top made in segments, with curvedframes fitting between the legs. When an elliptic or kidney shape is employed,a special hinge must be made. This is fixed at the centre, and is made of extrawidth ; owing to the curved rail and top, not more than one can be used, and it isfor this reason that the hinge flaps are made longer than the ordinary type. Speciallocks are also to be obtained for such work, which is very light in TABLES AND FRAMED-UP WORK 123 33C 3Z qui .||jM\mimiiul m *^L 3E3C
