For instance, the shaft of the tool Fig.^3631, when bent at about the angle of 45 degrees, becomes a side cutting and facing tool, as shown inplan in Fig. 3634, in elevation in Fig. 3635, and in perspective in Fig. 3636; and irr like manner thecranked tool, Fig. 3632, when also bent as in Fig. 3634, becomes Fig. 3637, and is also adapted to work-ing into angular corners upon either face. 3634. 3636. Mr. Nasmyths tool-gage, shown in elevation in Fig. 3638, and in plan in Fig. 3639, entirely removesthe uncertainty of the angles given to these irregular bent tools; for instance, when the shaft of the toolis laid upon the flat surface and applied to the iron cone c, whose side measures about 3° with the per-pendicular, it serves with equal truth for s, the tool for surfaces; p and/, the side-cutting tools, usedalso for perpendicular cuts and fillets; and u for under-cut works. 3638.
