FOB DESCRIBING PATTERNS. 53 Pig. 52. TC C9<M CQto *?li» 03 Set oflF the line ABC, fig. 52, equal in length to the circumfer-ence of the Collar AB ; erect the perpendicular lines AD, BE andCF; set off on each of BE, the same number of equal distances aain the semicircle ; from the points draw lines parallel to BE, a31, 1, 2, 2, &c. ; make AD, BE and CF equal to AC and BD; also,each of the parallel lines bearing the same figures as 1, 1, 2, 2,3, 3, &c., then a line traced through the points will form the pav-tern. Edges to be allowed. 54 PRACTICAL RULES PIPES. To describe a Pattern for a T Pipe at any angle^ theCollar to be Smaller than the Jlahi Pipe, Fig. 53,. Lot CE, fig. 53, be the diameter of the collar, and AB the angle••cquired ; describe the semicircle CDE ; make CF and EII of equallength, with a radii equal to one-half the diameter of the largepipe ; describe the arc FIT ; divide the semicircle into any num-ber of equal parts ; from the points draw lines parallel to AC, aa1, 2, &c. There must be an odd number of lines, as in the dia-gram, so that one of the lines run through the centre of the semi-circle.
