The table also shows the proportionof rivet to the plate—thus, a i-inch platerequires a t\ rivet, etc. It is recommended, in view of the in-creased disposition on the part of official examiners to test theapplicants knowledge of drawing, for any one interested, toredraw to a full size all the rivets, ])lates, and methods of join-ing the two contained on pages 113-116. ^ ^ ^ f fA vi %?
