The firstlines will be perpendicular lines, C and D ; there is no certain distance for these linesto be drawn apart, but if drawn too far from each other will change the bevel.

The firstlines will be perpendicular lines, C and D ; there is no certain distance for these linesto be drawn apart, but if drawn too far from each other will change the bevel. Nowwe take the square, put if on the bottom arm-rail line, where it intersects with per-pendicular lines C and D, and draw line E. To make the matter clearer, put thesquare on line E, and the dotted line. Mark, that an error in this line would fail to pro^duce the desired bevel. Now draw the two parallel lines F G. Take the width betweenlines B E on C, and put it on line G; starting from this point produce line H, runningto the corner formed by the intersection of lines C and E. Should you wish to prove the bevel, you will find that line H and horizontal line Qwill give the desired Fig. 5. These lines are nearly as those in Fig. 4, but showing a great difference ingetting the bevel, because this one, although contracted like the other, still inclinesoutward, which will change the bevel a great deal, according to the inclination. the rocker or any .other piece of wood. Put the square on bottom rocker linewhere it intersects with lines D, B and H, and produce line C. E represents the con-tracted line. To draw line F, start from line E, where it intersects with D. Take the spacebetween lines F and E. on line H, and put it on line K, which is marked G. Line Kwants to be made square with line C, starting from perpendicular line D, and horizon-tal line B. If we made a line from letter G on line K, where lines C and D intersect,in taking the bevel from the horizontal line, this would be the bevel if it was not lean-ing out. Line I represents the leaning-out line. Takie the space between lines I and WORKING DRAFTS OF LA
